Not got THAT much snow up in northumberland, but we've got enough, hah, all the schools are closed, except the ones that are local, so me and my friends went to gloat to the younger children who had to go to school :P

All local schools closed
No busses running
And even my engineering night class is canceled (due to the school being closed)

I decided that a motorcycle was not a good idea today  :Claugh:

And some kids have just built a snowman on the guys soft top mercedes opposite and he has no sence of humour  :Claugh:(I normally hate kids but sometimes they come up trumps  :Cbiggrin:)

It's so annoying.  Every secondary school in Bradford has been close all day except Hanson... it's like the 3rd biggest school in england, it's on a hill and half the teachers live in Leeds and couldn't get in today, but stupid school was still open. :Cmad:
Got better news as I can go sledging tomorrow as they say its going to be shut (thank you). At least they've finally seen sense... :D

I'm also impressed, as we can't get down the hill because of of the snow, but a 12 wheeled lorry has just reversed all the way up it to the top. Thats some skillage.

was hanson open!! :Cmask: shame

I hope our school is closed again, I might actually be able to plan to do something instead of spending most of the day getting my car stuck on the way back from school (because they don't tell you they have closed until you get there do they!!!!!! stupid school)

Id of like to see that lorry :P

How's this?

It's about.... 4 inches deep there :D

We're all snowed in at uni though, we pay for accomadation with food, but there are no canteen staff in and no deliveries of food either. Gonna have to survive on cartons of soup and supernoodles for a few days! ;D

yep, perfect for going ot the pub, having a beer or 5+snowball fight then making loads of snow angels all over the pristine parts of the snow

so satisfying to ruin the little patches of flat snow

I made a 10ft Snowman today! ^_^

We had loads of snow yesterday but it wasn't the right kind for building -
it didn't stick well. So we went sledging. But today the snow was perfect
for building a Snowman. I love it! I'll be quite sad when the snow melts. =(
Everyone's dreams sit aloft a rungless ladder. Some ladders are higher than others. Some are so tall they reach high above the clouds - but everyone can see their dream. Most people see that their ladder has no rungs and although they may talk about climbing it one day, seeing no way to get there, they eventually give up and settle for what lies beneath it.
      The brave however, the wise, the imaginative and the strong of will seek out their missing rungs. They learn all they can about the ladder, they surround themselves with friends and family who would also find the rungs, and failing all else they craft the steps themselves with their own two hands from nothing. Sometimes a rung breaks and the person falls. Some of these people will fall too hard and lose the strength to climb again - Yet they feel comfort in knowing they tried. They became better for it. And they experienced things and witnessed sights upon the climb that those who sat forever beneath it will never know.
      Then there are the special few who find new steps, or fix and climb again the ones that failed. Who eventually, through sheer tenacity and courage come to reach the final rung - Only they will have their dreams fulfilled. The extraordinary then build new ladders. These are the strongest people of all.
