Snow

[Wycombe Fox]

Just got out of the cinema from seeing Avatar and bloody hell it's carnage down here!

There's about four inches settled on the main roads and nothing's moving.

My wife left work at 5.30. It's an 8 mile journey and she's still 4 miles from home - 5 hours later!

She's just been told to go to a community centre near where the car is. I guess she'll be sleeping there tonight.

There are so many families just walking about because we never get snow. This is my 11th winter down here and I've never seen more than half an inch of snow that never lasts longer than half an hour!

[samlcfc]

stopped here a while back but apparently it said on the news a little while ago that we are going to get another 4 inches during the night. They said London are looking at about 30-40 centimetres

I'm convinced snow doesn't like Leicester.

Everywhere else gets a fair share, we get the sloppy seconds.

It's snowed in Plymouth and it's supposed to be heavy around Devon and Cornwall all night. What the hell is going on.

TBH where i live in stoke is abyssmal for snow, all of the surrounding areas get it and we're left with rain, but it's alright at the moment.

[Libertine]

Nice and thick covering now. Pretty much what I'd call 'proper' snow.

Oh my.

[StanSP]

Same Lib.

It's sideways snowing here.

[Guest]

It's fcuking rubbish down here in Shepherd's Bush.

Come on! Get me out of my night shift tomorrow night

Anywhere is 'miles off' from Plymouth though

[AoWW]

Bugger all snow in Norfolk. Well, the lightest of coverings but all rather pathetic.

Not Mutley, but that's for another day.

EITHER WAY fooking COME ON!

I hate first days back after holidays.

[Guest Mee-9]

Well i ain't going in. Being stranded at college wouldn't be a good idea.

EDIT: Started snowing again where i am.

Eleven buses stuck outside our house, going one way, last night and nine the other way...and yet work is called off when the road is now clear.

It took me over 50 minutes to get home last night and yet I'd make it in this morning in ten at most.

Brilliant.

[Samilktray]

Waited outside for 35mins for a bus, so I've come home.

Cant find my colleges phone number but I'm guessing its closed anyway.

That'll do.

[Ford Super Sunday]

Snowing right now, nice big snow.

However, I at the fact my old college (Bosworth CC) is open today, that place would still be open after a nuclear holocaust, never mind a drop of snow! Gutted for those who go there though!

Me Boilers broke, bugger.

[Matt]

My college is open!

We've had less snow that this in the past and many places have closed i'm sure.

Oh well I don't have to go till tonight, so hopefully if the snow gets worse throughout the day the college will be shut as the day goes on.

Got up at half 7 to attempt to get to college for some reason. Was a bit dodgy on the village roads but the main road was fine, except for the traffic. Took me 15 minutes to do less than 200 hundred yards. <_< So I came home.

I walked all the way to lectures, waited for 20 minutes before getting informed they had just been cancelled.

My lecturers are online on the course forum thingy and have been for about half an hour. They live about an hour away in normal travel conditions, why could they not let us know earlier? I could of played 2 or 3 games of Fifa!

[Daggers]

My mate is teaching at one of the only schools in Leicestershire to be open today

[Joe.]

Some good stuff down here in Eastbourne finally. Regrettable for those with easy target windows in halls still in bed.

[Katy]

Why do people want it to snow so much? It's crap, it's dangerous and it's disruptive. Living in the sticks makes it doubly worse. I hate the stuff. I'd gladly trade all the snow we've had over the past few weeks for some lovely snow and ice free roads any day of the week.

Snow > Rain.

1 thing though, It could have waited till I was employed then I could have used as an excuse not to go into work, I feel like I missing out on it the point of the snow.

Its like when I was at school, In my whole school life we were sent home from school once, That once my school sent home was a day I was 'throwing a sicky', I still went out and played out with my mates, but I felt like I was missing out cos' I was having the day of anyway and didn't get the enjoyment of being sent home
