Can't promise that I'll be able to add as much as I usually do (not very well atm) so its quite likely I might miss stuff but I've added a few thoughts to that thread re the current set up and tis easier if I just keep it in one place.

Admits to stock piling toilet roll in case of snow
have fear of running out of loo roll

chipping - that's bonkers! People are quite batty!

rabid - approx where in the uk are you?

(I always have extra loo roll stashed in the loft )

Still going here, about 1cm from what should be just the advance guard. Oooh I really hope we get the predicted 5 to 10 cm

Pepperrabbit - sorry, missed it was your birthday - HaPpY BiRtHdAy I hope your friends turn up - if not, I hope you and DH have a lovely evening , tell your friends I said they're a bit WET bailing out on your party!! I'm sure if it got too bad you'd let them crash on the sofa/floor for the night!!

Happy Birthday to you too Pimmpom - I hope you get out and have a lovely time. Just drive safely!

raintoday have taken off their precip type now. Pity really, though it does provide an incentive to subscribe....

oh pepper I missed it too - happy happy birthday and you too pimmpom.

Badkitten I am not too far from Heathrow

F we have snow forecast the dcs are allowed to panic buy two things each, this afternoon, dd panic bought a "bent bargain" millionaire cheesecake and a carton of pomegranate juice, and ds panic bought bogof Jaffa cakes and J2O. Dp and I panic bought red wine, and whiskey for Hot Toddy.

Last winter and the beginning of this winter I did put a lot of 'extras' in the loft (loo paper etc) I have no problem at all with stock piling (or indeed panic buying if people feel the need) it was just the fact that everyone seemed to be doing fairly normal shopping, yet this woman felt that she was the only one who was and that everyone else was being 'stupid' and getting in her way. I think she needed to see the irony in her comment

LOL

Not really. I have to go to work this week, no matter what, so I will be out and about, no need for any panic buying and we are not going to get so much the shops will run out (famous last words!! LOL).

I went to Aldi last weekend and picked up an extra thing of milk as I knew there was a possibility of snow for this weekend. I'm now glad I bought toilet rolls during the week (needed them anyway) so should be OK if there's going to be a toilet roll shortage through panic buying!

Snowing in Farnham now! Not a lot - little flakes but settling straight away

Seeker ~ I'm liking your panic buys!

It seems to have stopped here for now, light dusting and paths white - but not enough for a snow mouse yet!

panic buys this way

gettingalifenow - I was born in Farnham, but never lived there, though not a million miles away :)

Seeker & family win the prize for 'panic buying' so far - nicer choices than loo roll though they may regret that later LOL

RubyRubyRuby - send DH back out How come you don't have any heating?? Do you mean 'none zip zero zilch' or just no CH??

rabit you'll be fine - it'll be here soon :)

/gets out kids sled and waits by door

Oh I am so boring. I panic bought some kiwis, milk, bread & eggs.

I panic bought milk this morning. I have everything else in though so no prob!

Fairly heavy snow in shropshire since 12 pm today.But 2 miles up the road at 2.30 it was just rain.I have been tobagganing with the kids in blizzard-like conditions[am now warming up with Baileys in my coffee!].Temperature feels pretty cold outside now.

Still snowing here - just took a couple of snaps in case it's all we get this winter

Any gardeners amongst us?

I have just realised that I have forgotton to put the pot of planted bulbs out. They have been in a fairly cool part of the house - when should I put them out. Would it be good or cruel to put them out tomorrow??
