Coz it's cold 

Really cold here west central Scotland but a clear blue sky so no snow.

WorraLiberty · 27/10/2018 16:27

You say it's October like it's the middle of June! We're days away from November!

I was just thinking that! Grin

AGHHHH · 27/10/2018 16:31

@WorraLiberty I'm just imagining them running downstairs on Christmas morning and crying out WHAT'S WITH THE GIANT TREE IN OUR LIVING ROOM?!!

WorraLiberty · 27/10/2018 16:33

AGHHHH Grin Grin Grin

Or during Summer... "What's that great big ball of fire in the sky?"

Tinlegs I think with a garden and a view like that, come next summer, you need to be hosting a mumsnet garden party. Just sayin... Grin

lubeybooby · 27/10/2018 17:12

we had snow for most of the day here. I am 350m up a hill though it was still a bit of a surprise. The forecast said it wouldn't be further south than snowdonia and... we are further south than that so. Oh well.

North East. Street was whiteover this morning when we woke up. Still hangingaround now albeit slushy.

BernardsarenotalwaysSaints · 27/10/2018 17:15

Dh has just rung to ask me that! He's down down in the Forest of Dean & it's chucking it down with the stuff apparently. I gleefully told him all we've got (in South Warks) is rain Grin

DuggeesWooOOooggle · 27/10/2018 17:40

Another one in the Tinlegs' garden fan club. What a view! I would never get bored of looking out at that. Please tell us roughly where you are!

Loyaultemelie · 27/10/2018 18:06

Have had hail and fairly determined sleet here in NI but now got alarmingly clear sky

Topseyt · 27/10/2018 18:16

No snow here (Essex) though it feels quite cold and is only about 6°. I don't think any is forecast, but I guess it isn't impossible.

I hate snow. It can piss right off.

SheWhoDaresGins2 · 27/10/2018 19:02

AGHHH and Worra

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

NigelGresley · 27/10/2018 19:54

tinlegs daren't say where she is for fear of having a hoard of mumsnetters turn up to make an offer on the house GrinGrin

hugoagogo · 27/10/2018 20:01

Cause I love it and I paid the price upfront in putting up with the worst hottest summer ever.Halloween Grin

AnneBoleynsHead · 27/10/2018 20:04

GhoulishGremlins I also may or may not live in Buxton. I was running in it this morning😂

theboxofdelights · 27/10/2018 20:35

Dusting of snow on the ground here now. We are leaving at 630am for a week of 24 degrees and sunny ☀️ 😎 which is as hot as I can cope with, as in not as hot as it was here in the summer because I couldn’t cope with that!

LanguidLobster · 27/10/2018 20:37

Fine here, south coast.

Surprised to hear some have had snow already.

GhoulishGremlins · 27/10/2018 20:41

@AGHHHH @WorraLiberty Oh shush Grin what I meant was it shouldn't snow until around Christmas!!

@AnneBoleynsHead You're mad!

Tin legs can i camp in your garden

Tinlegs · 27/10/2018 20:44

I am in NW Scotland. Garden very much open for parties.

It might delight you to know our neighbours recently purchased their house (and garden) for £275k. 5 bedrooms, 4 reception rooms.

But, a long way from the M25.

All welcome. The islands behind the snowstorm are utterly beautiful and the beach is fine white sand under the snow (Which we get little of - for proper snow you have to head inland).

Branleuse · 27/10/2018 20:46

Gorgeous gorgeous. I love the highlands

BikeRunSki · 27/10/2018 20:47

Snowy in Holmfirth this morning.

IpanemaChica · 27/10/2018 20:54

We were paddling in the sea today and eating ice creams in the sunshine - dorset coast.

DuggeesWooOOooggle · 27/10/2018 21:06

I would move up there in a heartbeat Tinlegs, I adore Scotland, especially the wild NW. Don't even mind when it's dreich which is roughly 80% of the time.

poorpaws · 27/10/2018 21:52

I’ve walked along the beach today, eaten a bacon butty outside at a cafe just off the beach and had an ice cream on the way home. 5 hour dog walk, cold in the shade but lovely (south Devon).
