We said it was snowy

Be warned, it's rather large.

Wow, that's rather impressive.

Isn't it just? :-)

Wow, that's awesome! How much snow did you get?

[slowfox]

Well, here we've had about 3" of standing snow on a couple of occasions. I know that they had much more down South (a friend texted me with reports of a foot of the stuff in her garden), and Scotland almost certainly would've had more in some places.

Reminds me of Iceland in the wintertime. :)

I would imagine so... except we're not quite as spectacular as your place :-)

Anyway, the point being that this is unusual for Blighty (as you probably can recall from your days here), and I am quite certain that you'd be rolling your eyes in despair when you saw how the entire transport infrastructure ground to a halt overnight the moment the first snow arrived ;-P

It snowed once in Kent while I was there and I found the reaction to the inch of snow hilarious. The campus library was closed due to the weather conditions and the kids were snowboarding.
