Welcome to family, friends and visitors. Here you will find interesting (hopefully) pictures of my part of the world, news of our household and probably, long ramblings about anything that catches my interest.

Snow.

I woke this morning to find that the snow had settled, for a while at least. Although we often see snow on the hills it's rare to get snow at sea level. Much excitement as I picked my way carefully trying to take pretty pictures. 
The morning's sleet and hail showers soon cleared the snow from the beach. Some remains on the hill tops and temperatures are set to drop again tonight and into the morning. Not sure if it would be a good idea to try and drive to Mach tomorrow morning.


After a late breakfast I put on my walking boots and headed up the hill to the War Memorial hoping for a glimpse of Mount Snowdon. But there was too much cloud hanging over Snowdonia for a sighting of the snowy peak.
At home I took down the Christmas lights from the windows and most importantly got all the Christmas decorations put away. All except for the door wreath which turns out to be just a bit too wide to fit in the cupboard with the rest of the boxes. That means it will have to go up in the loft. Maybe I'll find the door hanger by next year.
