It did, it did, it did! It was snowing before midnight, though when I had to wake up at 4am it'd stopped and all was hushed and covered...


And then when I woke up in the daylight...


So I had to go for a walk through the village, just in case it started to thaw too much (it's still there... *g*)


Loved these teasels...


And who can resist a seventeenth century church, all covered in snow...


Of course my alarm went off blaring take your pills now! so I turned for home, and spent the day marking and sleeping and so on, and now it's nighttime again - but the snow's mostly still there. It fell off the tree branches across the road, but it cloaks the ground... And tomorrow I'm still at home, so I don't even need to think about the melted-slippery bits yet. It's not nearly as colourful as my winter garden yesterday, all white and grey sky and twig-brown world, but I like it... *g*

Love the picture of the graveyard in the snow. :D

I'm glad we don't have any snow down here though. It looks very pretty, but I hate the stuff, it makes me cold and anxious! I like enjoying your snow from a distance. :D

So pretty! I love the church and graveyard in the snow - I can almost hear the silence - well, you know what I mean!

Ooh! Snow is magical (says the one who hardly ever has to deal with the reality of snow)!
Enjoy it and thanks for sharing it with us! It's perfect that you don't have to go into work tomorrow, though the reason for the off time is not nice.
We are currently having a spell of "freezing at night/balmy during the day" weather, with not a chance of a snowflake in the forecast.
My husband is out there pruning the fruit trees in his shirtsleeves right now.

It's lovely - and the teasels are magnificent! Here, there's a lot of slush this morning, and the roads are probably treacherous with black ice, so it's probably as well you're safe and warm indoors.

The black and white effect of snow scenes is fabulous at first but if it lasts longer than a few days my eyes get desperate for colour.

Great photography!

That is so beautiful, especially the churchyard.

Beautiful photos! I especially love the yellow-lit shadows-on-the-snow nighttime one, the composition is really stunning.

Beautiful teasel pictures. And I especially like the countryside view that's all black and white except for the tiny splash of colour of the sign.

My SIL on the Essex coast sent us a picture from her upstairs window of about 15 cm of snow in her back garden. We're green with envy (pretty close to green with snowlessness too *G*).
