Schneeweißchen und Rosenrot...

It snowed! And such a lot. Hurrah!

In other thoughts, the bus I was on yesterday nearly ran a guy over. He just stepped out onto the road right in front of the bus and the driver slammed on the breaks, stopping literally centimetres from the guy. I think the guy was a few sandwiches, a cake, bottles of lemonade, a picnic rug and a sunny day short of a picnic. At least we didn't run him over. It would have been a bit too weird and involved too much time making police statements or something.

But the snow. The snow is way better! The whole time we were there, it snowed. Either just gently falling flakes or blasts of them that would sting your face as the wind swirled them around. There's nothing better than crunching through fresh snow, sinking down into it, kicking it around, randomly being pelted with it by the friends you go up there with...











Also, we had to keep shaking off the umbrellas or the snow would try to make them close. Surprising how heavy it is for delicate little flakes...
