Snow
Snow
So we’ve had a little bit of snow here in Britain over the last week. It seems that it has caused the entire country to grind to a halt. We aren’t fortunate enough to live on a road that the council deems important enough to grit. I can’t blame them for it though since there are probably less than 200 people living past the point in the village that they do grit too.
Living at the bottom of a hill doesn’t help, it can sometimes be a challenge to get up it and since the bottom is dead-end then it doesn’t help matters for getting out. Still, we seem to have managed it. I’m going back to Munich on Saturday to start work again on Monday and I don’t see there being any problems over there with the snow even though they have undoubtedly had more, but they are used to it.
Below are a few photos from around the house. The snow is about 2” deep. We keep having snow showers occasionally but nothing major. We seem to be in a bit of a black spot here for weather and miss out on all of it, whatever it is. It is never as cold, warm, wet or windy as the surrounding area. Go 10 miles in any direction and there is a foot or more of snow.
I hope that the airport is open on Saturday, I don’t really fancy being stuck in the airport for a few hours waiting for my flight because the runway has been closed. It is quite late in the afternoon so it may be the following morning before we go if it is delayed.
Despite all this, the weather in Munich looks to be much worse. It is colder and has more snow than here.
