Rea Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Beehive I'm sure the snow will have cleared by Thursday I'm borrowing Caits positivity Quote
zigzag Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Can someone tell me what the weather is like around the Gatwick area?? My son is travelling from Cornwall to Gatwick through the night tonight ready to fly to Italy on his school trip tomorrow!! As mentioned before, we are not used to snow way down here in the sticks.

hali Posted March 23, 2013 Author Posted March 23, 2013 airport is up and running normally and its all melted in Berkshire Quote
beth1 Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 This weather had better be gone by next week and the sun to shine up in Scotland for a week. We have snowdrifts in the front and back gardens. Our roads is snowed on, but the next road is now gritted up to the main road, and main roads are gritted. So I may have to walk to work on Monday as my work never shuts for even the worst of the snow and icy conditions. Quote
Guest Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I love snow!!!! Very little in Oxfordshire!!! ...booo! :angry: Quote
Pimms o'clock? Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 I'm so glad I ventured up to Norwich to get my baby gilr from uni yesterday, I was on a mission to beat the snow, and I did; all safe and snug now. I hope you and yours all get to where they should be soon if not already. Big {{{hugs}}} 1 Quote

sunnyday Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 How is everyone doing? Sooooooooo cold here but thankfully no snow........ Quote
hali Posted March 25, 2013 Author Posted March 25, 2013 yes freezing here also but no white stuff :rolleyes: Quote
thumperrabbit Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Ffffffffreeeezzzzzing! Lots of snow left and now Ice which is the bit I really hate Quote
Cait Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Enjoying it in your picture though! Hah. Yes, all ice here now too Quote
Froglet Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Really cold, lots of ice and still a fair bit of snow although it's turning to slush. We have our annual egg rolling planned for Thursday afternoon and are trying to decide what to do - the snow isn't a problem as the playground will be clear by then but the temperature doesn't lend itself to classes sitting still outside watching eggs roll for an hour!

sunnyday Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Oh what a shame Helen We have our Easter egg Hunt on Thursday - although I imagine it will still be very cold there shouldn't be any snow on the ground - fingers crossed! :1b Think Mr S and I will soon have to stop thinking about plans for gardening.......hmmmmm.........paint colour charts maybe?! 2 Quote

Well hopefully it will still happen in some form or other! My brother, sister and I have just had an e-mail from mum. As the weather is 'ungardenable' she's decided that she and Dad are going to clear out the loft - she's sent us a list of things that she wants us to make decisions about! Maybe that's an option for you?! Quote
Rea Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Same here, there was a slight thaw earlier and the sun was a lovely change but its freezing. Quote

Think I may have spoken too soon re snow and our Easter Egg Hunt - just seen a forecast that said we could have snow on Wednesday and Thursday :blink: NOOOOOO! Edited March 25, 2013 by sunnyday Quote
sunnyday Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Same here, there was a slight thaw earlier and the sun was a lovely change but its freezing. My daughter-in-law is en route to Birmingham as we speak.........she is a trainer for those working with adults with learning disabilities (hmmm hope that's the current pc description)........she has to go all that way to access some safeguarding training - amazing Quote
Rea Posted March 25, 2013 Posted March 25, 2013 Even more amazing its in Birmingham. I went on a safeguarding day a couple of weeks ago and it wasnt! It was mainly about forms and who to contact nothing to do with signs to look for, although I'm sure most of us know what to look for, not everyone will. Funnily, the last training day I did was about funding, that was all about how to fill in the forms to make it easier on the EY office staff! Quote
beth1 Posted March 26, 2013 Posted March 26, 2013 Still snow up by me, saying that I am highish up the pennine hills. We have managed to get out to work by car (dads) as my head never well rarely closed the school. I have also ended up with a lovely annoying cold, which will be fun tomorrow with a playground duty again. There were/are still huge snowdrifts in the playgrounds. Yes believe or not we are outside playing in said playground but only children with wellies can play in the snowdrifts. That reminds me must take a spare pair of trousers (if I can find any) for playground duty, in case I have to rescue a child or two stuck in a snowdrift. Good news is that its our last day of term yipeeeee. All I need now is that this pesky snow and cold goes away and the warmer spring weather finally arrives. Going up to Scotland soon hope we dont get stuck in any snowdrifts trying to get to Straithpeffer near Inverness. Quote
