The UK will be at standstill this morning due to a few snow flakes. Roads blocked and shops being emptied with panic buying.

Snowing really hard where I am. Not laying other than on the cars though at the mo. It hasn't snowed in over 2 years since I've had the scoob. Want to see how it performs compared to my old A3 Quattro.

This end in North Wales it was the blustery rain that came down in a form of a furious hailstorm. The sound of hard hitting hailstones was very alarming. That continued for at least 45 mins and then came the mighty wind. Until say, 5am the outside had a thick layer of snow formed by the hailstones settling down in solidarity. I reckon the constant winds and the sun rays made it disappear.

It has been constantly windy and sunny here all morning. There's more drama to come, I know.

However, I'll tell you a story that makes a connection between the obvious and the irrelevant. When my mother was little (she was born in 1940), it was British Raj in my original neck of the woods. One little friend of hers had a very old grandad who lived in England, wasn't exactly a gangster or anything, and occasionally sent her pics with him in his duffle coat, gloved hands, stooped back and a walking stick. That friend used to boast- "My old grandad lives in England, and it's so cold there that you open the tap and the running water turns into a solid frozen stick! ". My mother once got fed up with her boasting and said- "So, I wonder what happens when your old grandad wees It sounds sooooooo cold there that his wee must turn into a solid frozen stick! Now I know where his walking stick comes from.

Please excuse their ignorance for science, they were, like 6-7 year old, then.

In terms of pics, no drama here as such to take a pic of, nor have I got the pic of my mum's friend's grandad's walking stick. I bet it's in some British museum for its invaluable worth.

Yes, they certainly do.

Hope we see some shots from Essex and Kent where it's making its mark.

Local rage here predicted 6" and blizzards.
So far, not one flake, bright sunshine, windy and cool.

I am SOOOOOO sick of the weather forecasters and the stupid media jumping on the forecasts to scare people. Time we did what the Russians did and prosecute the MetOffice.........

As an Englishman you should know what you're coming back to. Your sea for your surfing is completely frozen and your house is laden with icicles. When you come back, post a pic of your new igloo and a reindeer or a pig for your vehicle here in the UK. Can't use my cats as my carriers for they're so little, but I've been been using them fetch me shopping from Aldi in this weather.
