I’m really sorry but the snow is my fault…

We put grass seeds down, talked about picnics and a visit to the beach when it gets warm.

Clearly we’re being punished for my transgressions.

It’s so cold my knee has started to hurt.

I washed my Big Coat and was about to put it away at the back of the wardrobe. Guilty as charged 😢

Nillynally · 31/03/2022 15:50

Definitely my fault. I complained about the heat saturday sat in a courtyard garden having afternoon tea

Minikievs · 31/03/2022 15:51

I sat in a beer garden in shorts and a vest top on Saturday takes share of blame

I’m fecking freezing with my big jumper on and I’m not talking to any of you. Angry

I was wondering who to blame. I have now ordered a ton of voodoo dolls (enough for one each anyway). Prepare to be hurted by lots of little ickle pins....

Laiste · 31/03/2022 15:53

No no it's mine.

I said to someone last week (while doing school run in flip flops and little cardi) that i remember vaguely that it actually snowed hard one April !!

And we laughed heartily ...

Hmm

Booked a holiday next week. Our first in 3 years so obviously it has to be our fault (well, actually it's dh's fault. It was his idea!!Confused).

@Laiste

You should hang your head in shame.

I packed up the scarves, hats and gloves and put away the winter coats at the beginning of the week, definitely my fault.

Laiste · 31/03/2022 15:56

Oh i am :(

I'v just done the school run in a flipping blizzard ...

Oh phew, I thought it was my fault. Yesterday, gorgeously sunny, I wrote a story about sleet. Woke up this morning and there it was. I've been feeling so guilty. Glad to shift the blame.
Narwhalelife · 31/03/2022 15:58

I can’t let you all take the blame when I ordered a new garden furniture set and dared to dream about sitting out in it 🤣

pantsandpringles · 31/03/2022 16:00

I'm standing outside my daughters nursery, waiting for her to come out and it's SNOWING. 😑

Atomiccat · 31/03/2022 16:00

I just took of the winter tyres on my bike. Really sorry. Woke up to -12 and lots of snow (not in the UK). At least we got to build one more snowman.

GreeboIsMySpiritAnimal · 31/03/2022 16:01

Nope, it's my fault. I bought a pretty flowery dress, put away my "big" coat, and planted things in the garden. I'm very sorry.

awmum2b · 31/03/2022 16:02

My parents have been away on holiday to get some sun...their holiday has been plagued with ice storms.
They returned to the UK last night...
Co-incidence!

TreacheryPepper · 31/03/2022 16:03

This evens it out because we bought a sledge during the only decent snowfall of the winter and there's been nothing since. Perhaps I should talk loudly about said sledge and maybe even get it out of storage?

user1498572889 · 31/03/2022 16:05

I planted seeds and put my washing line up and started talking about cleaning the pool Clearly my fault ☹️

yellowsuninthesky · 31/03/2022 16:05

My son also contributed as he bought some sunglasses Grin

IcakethereforeIam · 31/03/2022 16:06

I potted up a dahlia, so sorry. The worst is it was so shrivelled I nearly threw it away.

mumsiedarlingrevolta · 31/03/2022 16:08

No-it is my DD's fault entirely

She was bringing so much home from Uni for Easter that the car was bursting so she left her box of winter jumpers up there and only brought home Spring clothes...

MrOllivander · 31/03/2022 16:08

I shaved my legs Blush

silversequin · 31/03/2022 16:08

I bought sun cream for the DC two days ago. I’m sorry.
