The Snow of Spring

It's snowing! I haven't seen such heavy snow for years! My inner child just couldn't resist running out into the front yard and making snow angels... actually self-control persevered, and she only made one snow angel.

I only saw snow once this year which was in January and the odd bit of hailstones. But there wasn't enough to build a snowman. It's actually quite sunny at the moment down where I'm living.

oh, can't see the snow angel! boo-hoo... Since she won't post a pic of herself after all that food, was looking to the angel to give me some indication!

Shabby - Rather sunny than snowy. The weather has been really out of ordinary since I came back. Blame global warming.

Steven - Ha ha! Your perseverance is much better than mine! Unfortunately, my angel was done on shallow snow, so it doesn't look all that good.

Wow, I didn't even know that it snowed in London when I was there for 3 years... I'm actuali a bit jealous (as u can probably guess from the speed of which I sweat), I prefer cold weather. Ok, I'm very jealous, haha.

Yulin, it's really nothing to be envious about. At first, the snow is pretty when it falls, but after a while it turns into a wet dirty slush, which splatters about when you walk. Give me HK's subtropical climate anyday, especially in the hills!

It rarely snows like this, I think the last time was about 18 years ago!
