Dad: sorry for the really awful, blurry photo but it's the only one I've managed to get today! It gives you an idea of the conditions here.
After seeing a neighbour's car slide across the road and crash into a bollard (neighbour fine but car not!) I did not attempt to go into
work today. The wife went in by public transport but had a struggle to get home again - more than two hours to do a journey that usually
takes about 15 minutes by car.

Can you spot Pooch? It takes some doing unless he has his reflective coat on, believe me! In uncleared areas the snow is halfway up his belly and he has to sort of bound through it.

It's also my birthday today! The snowiest birthday ever! ;-)
