Okay, this snow thing is getting ridiculous

Last night was chilly, but clear as a bell at 1am, so we didn't expect to wake this morning to 6 inches of snow! I worked out that I've seen snow fewer than 10 times in my life (even if you count the stuff that fell, but didn't settle, over Easter), so this is pretty exciting. And so damn beautiful. In fact, Nicola the German Housemate reckons in her 8 years in Oxford she's never seen this much snow on the ground, even in winter. And the indian kids who live next door had a blast - pelting each other with snowballs and shrieking at the weird white stuff that I'm sure they've never seen like this.

But c'mon, it's April already!

PS, for those wondering, yes, this is our house, our yard and Ants' new car, although they do look a little different today!
