It snowed over night and we woke up to around an inch and a half of powder snow. The kids were delighted as the schools had warned that they may shut if it did snow. They were less impressed when their schools weren't on the list of those closed in Sussex. As usual the snow created chaos. I couldn't get the car out because we are on a hill and the road hadn't been gritted - I just wasn't willing to risk sliding down it. So we walked, which initially annoyed the lads but once they realised that other kids were also walking and throwing snowballs, they cheered up. (Especially when I got caught in some crossfire...my fault for walking too closely to teenage lasses when lads were on the other side of the road...).

Fingers crossed the council will grit the roads tonight as I nearly slid over a number of times walking down the hill (and on the flat).

Here is the view out the kitchen door this morning:




And because I've finally uploaded it off the camera, here is my first ever (and most likely last ever!) quilt! While I enjoyed making it, I'm not convinced I did a good job.




It makes a nice cover for my legs when I'm watching TV late at night and the heating has gone off - *grins* Oh my, I sound like a granny! But I do like snuggling into it.
