For HG and I that means slippy slidey as we leave our respective West End parties, for the rest of the South East I predict chaos as us poor Brits singularly fail to cope with it, as usual.

Best snowman or snow-woman picture to receive a Mars Bar (nothing to do with deep fried or Oxo Towers!).

Be prepared for our nation's great capital to grind to halt again then. Not much in the way of white stuff up here in God's Own County, which is ironic really, considering how us hardened Northerners can actually cope with it...

A few snow showers here so far but they pass very quickly, and it better keep away, snow = evil.

Had 2' by 8am - thawed slightly at lunchtime but now light snow again and the roads are again white.
After being in the mid 80s last week, I'm not building snowmen!

Local (Winnersh, Berkshire) Sainsbury choc-a-bloc with shoppers....methinks they have been looking at the local weather forecast. Bugger, I might be under pressure to put the central heating on before February![}:)]

Following the measured tone set by our media and 'bracing' themselves by panic buying canned goods presumably. Have they gone feral yet?

here we go.
Small snow drop in Larrndon and the press will be full of 'Britain in white out chaos' nonsense whilst the rest of the country just gets on with it.

HG, while I am sure you were speaking in jest, given the interchange between yourself and tonty, may I remind you that there are cabin crew who frequent the board and your remarks could be seen as offensive.
