We had very little snow in Cornwall yesterday and my school was definitley open. I drove down to Truro [just over 50 miles] and saw the odd snowflake. This morning is a bit different. We have about 3 inches of snow up here on the high moors. The main roads have snow ploughs on them but my school [25 miles away over the moors] has closed today. The lanes aren't clear and there is ice under the snow. The West of Cornwall has been worst hit. So, Jon's out taking pikkies ready for next years Christmas cards, the cats are curled up and snoozing, and after I have done this I am going to curl up in front of the wood fire with a good book and a very large mug of hot chocolate and have the day to myself. I for one would rather have money spent on our infrastructure and our schools than have it spent on something that last happened down here about 18 years ago. [3 years ago when Bodmin Moor was closed doesn't count as, had the lorry not jacknifed going up the hill on the A30, it would have been kept open... anyway I was in Birmingham and missed it!]
