SNOW

Snow, snow, more snow, ice ice, more ice. Winter is definitely here. It snowed again this morning just as we were thinking it might get warmer (maybe by the weekend ??). But Dougal loves it : I burrow away in it, chase balls, turn the white stuff yellow! Grandad did manage to venture out last Monday and made it to the cinema where, he said, were massive piles of snow and ice where the car park had been cleared. Apart from that and Father Christmas and elf duties Nanna and Grandad have not been out of Driffield for nearly 2 weeks. We were all planning to go to Edinburgh this weekend but looking at how much snow has fallen in central Scotland there's little chance of that. So we won't be seeing Martin on his birthday which is very sad. But there we are, we can't fight nature and wouldn't want to. Here's hoping for a thaw sometime but its going to take a long time before this lot goes.
