aww,tune for you oyvvbk

Ohwhatacrapmasfear · 04/02/2009 12:25

No yanbu. If he looks anything like the snowman on The ,er, Snowman, I would be sobbing. Am that you had enough snow to build a snowman though.

OhYouBadBadKitten · 04/02/2009 12:41

Kitten, you think you have problems, our snowmans head has fallen off and I KNOW the kids will blame me when they get home! (for not having stopped it or performed emergency first aid treatment etc)

(goes off & tries to think up plausible story to soften death of snowman)

Yes our snowman's head fell off this morning as well.

Although looking at the forecast we are supposed to be in for heavy snow tomorrow. What's your opinion Badkitten?

Poppycake · 04/02/2009 12:50

i thought the moment when our snowman's face slid off was particularly horrific, but 4yo dd thought it was hilarious. they do say kids can be cruel...

Our snowman's carrot nose fell off in the night and landed in his, er, groin area.

I suspected the neighbours at first but there where no footprints...

OhYouBadBadKitten · 04/02/2009 13:07

Have put photos on profile (for the first time)

lol at nose falling off in groin area.

These are sad days indeed. I can't bear the thought of his head falling off......

snoringnightmare - you are pretty well placed. I only hope that it doesnt get a bit warm for you for continued snow.

Walking today past the spot where we built our snowman, all I saw was a lonely carrot. There was still snow around so I think someone may have sabotaged the poor bugger, although further up the field was a MASSIVE snowball so he may have gone on to better things...

OhYouBadBadKitten · 04/02/2009 13:19

oh no D&O!!! still you know hes somewhere inside that giant snow ball!

Thank you BadKitten. Well, lovely day here at the moment very sunny but cold. Fingers crossed. Good snowman btw.

Lotster,

theres no chance of our snowman melting here snows still as thick as it was. with more forecast its meant to have stopped here by now weve had it since sunday.

Lilyloo · 04/02/2009 14:08

Like your snowman oybk we only built ours yesterday and have to laugh as dd told me it wasn't the right sort of snow to make a snowman
She was right it wouldn't role so he is more of a cone shape

MaryAnnSingleton · 04/02/2009 14:09

mine is looking so sad, his carro has dropped off and his head is bent - I do feel very

MaryAnnSingleton · 04/02/2009 14:09

carrot

OhYouBadBadKitten · 04/02/2009 15:02

Lilylou
I have learned so much about snowman building this week.
Mondays snow was too dry and powdery and wouldnt stick together. Hence dds cone effort.

Tuesdays snow (for us) was perfect - clumped together and allowed our penguin sculpture.

Wednesday (today) it was all crunchy with icy bits but fell apart as soon as we scrunched it. hopeless.

Am sorry about your snowman MaryAnn our snow mans face now looks a bit like the mask from Halloween. Hes still stood up though and I expect temps to drop soon so with a bit of tlc he may live til tomorrow - hooray!
