And it's snowing on and off in Hertfordshire and Bedfordshire. Children are sledging, buses are ploughing on and being very patient. The learner drivers, usually in threes down my road, seem to have disappeared.

The weather girls are delighted and relieved that their forecast has come true.

Nobody seemed to think they were going to work today at The Bull last night.

To sum up there are three camps of opinion - the goback to beds, the excited about making snowmen enthusiasts, and the 'it wasn't like this when I was a child, I walked 3 miles to school in two feet of snow' voice.

Take care PA getting home and remember - wrap up warm, take a shovel, drive slowly, comfort blanket, etc etc. We news people have to tell the public this information because people NEED us and they can't think for themselves.
