Saturday stroll in the snow

I can't believe how hard done by Witham has been the last few days with snow.  It's like the snow done a total detour around our town & forgot all about us.  For 2 days we've been on snow watch out our window waiting for this 'snow blizzard' the weather channels promised us.  It seems like everyone i know from Bristol through to Oxford, from Hastings up to Orpington, from Yorkshire right down to Norfolk got exciting 'build a snowman' amounts of snow on Friday.........but us........We just got a feeble covering of flakes that barely covered the cars, we went to bed last night so disappointed but through the night we were lucky enough that the flakes arrived & so this morning the ground and cars were all covered & a snow walk was organised.  After wrapping up like eskimo's the wellies came back out & we all took ourselves & the dog for a nice long walk along the river for 2 hours, finished off with a hot bowl of soup & a lovely cup of coffee.  It was a great walk with all Steve's family, just a shame we didn't get thick snow.........But now we are at home with a free weekend ahead, our fingers are crossed it gets heavier tonight & tomorrow can become a sledge day!!
