Impressive.
I much prefer looking at pictures of snow than having to live with the chaos that surrounds it in this country.

You can see my house from here!


Awesome - saw it on the front page of a newspaper but thougt it was just a mock up. It's really strange seeing it almost for real - I thought it just looked like that in maps

Heh, we have either BBC News 24 or Sky News on in work all day so I have my fill of the alarmist media (and the BBC is as bad as Sky) with all this nonsense about 'Frozen Britain' and 'paralysed this' and 'panic buying that' and 'death for entire counties assured as councils have only 3kg of grit left having dumped it all on the roads before there was any snow or ice so it all just got swept away, which is rather like having a w*nk before a hot date.'

It does seem a bit uniformly white, doesn't it? I can't really believe that all of the UK was snowed in while Eire remained mostly green.
