The Snow Arrives

I was phoned by my sister in law at lunchtime to say that the Enfield branch of the family are snowed in. I told her, rather smugly, that we had only had a few snow flurries. I should have known better as before I was off the phome, the white stuff had started descending in sizeable amounts. Time to get the non slip shoes out. I bet the younger members of the community are hoping that this keeps up until morning and that the schools will be shut.

Doubtless, some older villagers will be looking for the possibilty of a long lie in as well.

Tuesday: My wife had an appointment at the RD&E early this morning, and whilst the village roads were a bit tricky, the roads into and out of the village were fine and the road into Exeter was good. Well done to the gritters !!
