Ah come on, can't believe no-ones posted about the snow yet. Post your horror stories here:

Actually mines not bad, managed to get into work on the London Overground which thankfully doesn't collapse at predicted bad weather. I just wonder when it's going to stop?!

Oh and hasn't anyone else noticed a distinct lack of snowmen? I haven't seen a single one so far today :shock:

Snow is a bit cr@p up here as well. My 30 minute journey took around 1 hour today which isnt too bad at all. I'm keeping a watch on the snow now though as it's coming down quite thick. Anyone got a sleeping bag?

Well its been ok around here (Bournemouth). I was able to make a snowman Dolly, but disaster struck when his head wasnt cylindrical enough and ended up toppling off and sliding down the pavement, tragic. I lost 2 perfectly fine buttons...

The snow has turned to sleet now... I just hope that doesnt freeze over.

Drive home was bliss yesterday. In fact i was home quicker than i normally was...no traffic :)

This is what my daughter created yesterday. Note: the Hannah Montana wig! She was still there this morning (the snowwoman...)

Ha ha I LOVE it!!! I like the way Steve quickly adds "the snowwoman" (or should that be snowgirl?? snowmadam???) in case we think he made his daughter stay out all night :lol:

I did see a few snowmen on my way home from work and I made my own on the platform of the station and amazingly he was still there this morning :D (Pictures on Facebook - he'll probably be melted by the time I go home, sun is out in London and the big defost is happening)

Like the pirate chappy too Dave :applause

There's a snow rabbit in my road, with long ears and a carrot for a nose.

It also has a rather impressive penis.

I'd love to, but I don't have the technology (a camera).

Anyway, it's been quite sunny today, so I'm guessing he's had a bit of a bad hare day (sorry...) and won't look so impressive now.

There was no snow here this morning at all, now its absolutely covered in it. There is something quite mesmorising about a beach with a layer of snow on it...

The snow has been very disappointing here. What has fallen melted as soon as the it hit the ground. I wouldn't mind so much but a mile further in land and they had 3 inches last night.
