Isn't the snow wonderful? I woke up this morning and when I opened my curtains I witnessed a scene so beautiful it almost made me cry. My whole town is covered in a blanket of gorgeous snow. As I walked to get the bus to work everyone was greeting their fellow man and the world seemed like a much friendlier and nicer place. It's just a shame that it didn't happen on Christmas day. I'm still dreaming of a white christmas.

You're right morton.
ps - don't forget at times like these to leave a little bread out for the birdies. The little robins and starlings do appreciate it. I've spent many an hour watching the little birdies enjoying the feast I prepared them.

I like snow, I prefer the cold to it being uncomfortabley warm. I find that I get lethargic, can't concentrate and work slowly when it's warm. Cold is the ideal weather for "brain work" in my book.

Snow helps me stay alert as well ceri. There's many a time I'm outside shovelling snow and I immediately perk up.

you are a reptile sir!
snow is cool, too cold is not cool. this winter has been a dread since its been less snow and more cold. the only bad thing in snow is that it gets stuck to your pants and then ankles get all wet when inside.

The minute I get home I'm gonna run out into my backyard and make myself a snowman. I remember the fun I used to have as a kid doing that. Great days. Snow up to the windowsills. Tin bath in front of the fire. They sold sweets in jars back then. And you got the broken bits for free. Into the cinema with a jam jar. Happy days. Maybe those days will come back again. Yes. I can't wait to get home! I'm going to build the biggest snowman you've ever seen. I must remember and stop off at Asda to buy a carrot. Why? For his nose of course! Cheeky!

i'm exactly like that! I hate warm weather. Cold is so much better :-)
Yesterday there was thick blanket of snow all over my hometown... it was beautiful! It would have made Bill Hicks choke up and shed a few tears for sure :-p
But this morning when i woke up, it had completely melted away :-( Typical.

Yes. wouldn't it be great? We could dress him up in a scarf and a wooly hat and we could call him simon - yes, that's good -simon the snowman. And we could pretend to have great adventures with him. Like in that film but only better. He'd be the best snowman in the world!

Great point flea and I'll go out and listen out for it but a bit of the subject. We're talking about snow here. You must have some hilarious childhood anecdotes about snow that you could regale us with.

I was a full fledged adult when I first encountered full fledged snow in the States...snow was okay..lovely and crunchy..it's the sleet on the roads I hated..un intentional ice skating without ice skates..pretty much sucks:(..used to take me half an hour to walk across a 5 minute walk..there was so much damn road and sleet and so little snow..I would hop around from patch of snow to patch of snow..to get where I wanted to get..so yeah the Snow was a saviour:)

You know how snow is only mentioned in christmas singles? Why is that? I think the subject of snow merits a single on its own. I plan to write one - I'm going to call it "snowy heaven"

yeah i love snow, especially when it falls at night... it reflects all the light from the streetlights and its as bright as day (well, almost)
....and yeah fresh snow covering everything (especially tree branches) looks really beautiful...
.....but when its been on the ground for weeks, and near the streets its stained with dirt and everything, and its frozen so its just like a think layer of ice... well then it just gets annoying..

Damn, I read this thread thinking it was about the reggae/rapper Snow of "Informer" and 12 inches of Snow fame.
Oh well - I like the meteorological snow much better anyway. I live in New Jersey USA and people here always complain everytime it snows . . . fools.
