Pretty snow in the UK

(As to have one Urquhart-free post today:)

While The Island is groaning (rightfully so!) about Greenland having stolen the gulf stream (What does it want with it, thaw out all its Eskimo mummies like the ones from Qilakitsoq*??), the effect that all this has on the landscape is very pretty.

**ducks from all the snowballs the Brits start hurling at this unfeeling blasphemy**

*No clicky linky if you don't want to see m-things right away!! Wikipedia, as I have often remarked, likes to have gory pictures jump right at you and disturb you deeply when you look something up, and you can't ask them to take them away, because of neutrality and accuracy...

No snowballs from here, although I will gripe about the panic buying, the sudden desperate urge to hibernate (ie not turn up for work) and the immediate propensity for schools to close at ten minutes notice.

It's like, two inches of white stuff (and we only have about an inch here right now) and the entire country just, grinds to a slow, powdery, icy and slushy halt. Like, forever! Oh and there are the morons who think it's funny to accelerate or brake sharply on iced roads and cause seven car pile ups that leave me sitting in traffic jams while they wait to be rescued from their own stupidity..... but probably the least said about them the better.

But I have to agree, the landscape looks beautiful, truly gorgeous, so long as you're inside, with a roaring fire, a blanket, and hot chocolate!

These are nice, especially the snow mohawk on the car!
