I’m dreaming of a white Christmas…

Posted by admin on Dec 18, 2009 in News and Comment

Driving home last night it was just starting to snow by this morning the car was covered in a couple of inches of snow.  For all the trouble and disruption the snow brings it also makes it feel increasingly festive.   Make the most of the snow and enjoy playing snowballs with the family and walking to a carol concert in the snow.  It could all melt but with less than 6 days until Christmas it’s looking like we really might have a white Christmas this year in England.

Of course the snow does make it hard to get out to the shops and this is when ideally online shopping would really come into it’s own.  If you decide to buy online look out for next day delivery options as we’re now past the cutoff for both 1st and 2nd class post in the UK if you want to receive items in time for Christmas.  Also if you do order something online make sure you’re going to be at home to receive it or sign for it – you don’t want to spend hours in a queue at the post office on Christmas Eve.

Have a lovely weekend and enjoy the run up to Christmas.

110 Days to go, will it be a White Christmas this year?

Posted by admin on Sep 5, 2009 in News and Comment

Just to get you in the mood for Christmas I thought I’d share this picture of the castle in Bungay (Suffolk England) taken over the Christmas / New Year break back in 2003.  As far as I can recall this was the last time we had any snow at Christmas in my part of England.

I haven’t heard much speculation yet about it being a white Christmas this year but given how strange the weather has been this year I really wouldn’t be surprised to see a white Christmas this year.

Have you seen a long range weather forecast for this Christmas?  Do you think it will be a white Christmas this year? Let us know what you think.
