What's it like in your neck of the woods?
I woke this morning to a thick blanket of snow outside. Lovely, I thought. It then took me an hour to drive the mile to the motorway. Just before I hit the motorway, I received a call (hands free), telling me the heating was off at work and we could all have the day off 
I now have a whole day to do all the bits of jobs I've been meaning to get to before Christmas. Or I might just sit on my arse all day and mess about on here :)

Maybe for you Al, but here it was relatively warm, dry(ish) and even sunny for most of the day.
Got much colder as night fell, but can't complain.
Sam sent me a pic of the snow in Stoke this morning at 7.30am and you wouldn't think it was the same country

Well, with you as their spokeswoman (stokeswoman?), one could be forgiven for thinking so.
/me runs like a christian who's just seen someone who clearly needs opressing ;)
Mind you, compared with nool's other resident child of the Trent, at least you're family safe (and probably house trained too) 
I've never seen it as thick and hard as it was this morning. I had to work really hard to bring it off. My whole arm was numb by the time I'd finished.
I'm going to get one of those aerosols. Spray on, a quick wipe and you're all done; how good is that?
Etc.
At least you HAVE proper weather on the continent. Out here in the fuckin atlantic, all that changes from summer to winter is that hot humid rain changes to cold biting rain ;)

Gone are the days of Bob a job week when you'd be able to pay a small child to dress up in uniform and relieve you of the task.

Cold....and if the temperatures up here in northern Japan aren't cold enough for it to snow, then it often rains, but the rain is freezing cold.
When it snows, it snows, though.
