call that snow?
well I for one do not,
and I don’t think the boys were that impressed either!
The weather attempted more snow twice more, but it never really got going, so maybe that was it? Our yearly snowfall!
Thanks for all the fantastic comments about the scones! I’m sure my husband meant on a hot treacle tart of course : ) But Lynsey has to win with her suggestion, well non-suggestion, I think you all understand!
I have to share with you something which happened on New Years Eve, and I keep forgetting to mention it!
I was on the booze run, and ended up in Morrisons which have an excellent Real Ale selection. Well I got the bottles I wanted, and off I went to pay.
The lady in front finished so it was my turn, I had my own bag, ready, waiting, with the woman on the till just looking at me. I looked at her, and wondered if she knew me somehow, but no, oh no.
She said, “can I ask how old you are please?” !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! At this point how I did not laugh was incredible, then I had to work out how old I am, stumbled over saying I am 36, then just did a silly grin! She apologised, and then said she had to ask, as I looked so young, and I had very young skin!!!! She obviously did not notice the mound of grey hair sprouting out of the top of my head!
So I had to share that with you, it made my New Year! And anyway, I won’t be 36 for much longer : )

Oh that’s fantastic! It would have made my New Year too!
It looks like you got more snow than we did walking on Southampton common.

That is definitely NOT snow!
We just moved to Nebraska, so I’m learning. And that is not snow.
I love getting carded (I’m 41) even though some of the stores require it for all alcohol purchases. I pretend that I look way too young…

I think the last time I was asked for ID was when I was 25 or so! Thanks for choosing me to win a little something – great news to wake up to!

Happy Birthday!

Result! And Happy Birthday too so it seems.
My boys scraped 3 driveways to get enough snow for a snow-head. No chance of a body.

Hee hee. Well done on getting asked for I.D! This happens to me in Waitrose all the time, usually when I am buying real ale – I remember it happening last year at Christmas when I was buying sprouts, goose fat and 2 bottles of belgian beer – a very likely purchase for someone under 18 (NOT)! I have to remember to take my driving licence with me now – I am 31!
