Snow - it's all been said hasn't it?


"Mum, will you keep me warm?"

"If you run around Moira, you'll keep warm" - Mrs. Smallholder advises Moira, who was shivering (very little fleece you see). Once a teacher, always a teacher...

"What's this white fluffy stuff between my toes?" - Ambrosia.

"Dad, why haven't we got doors on our house, like the other alpacas?"

Mrs. Smallholder, happy before we took a 50 minute journey to Bristol Airport, only to find her flight to Glasgow had been cancelled after we had left".

Pixie - snow collected around her feet, until they resembled Ugg Boots!

Snow can make the most beautiful sculptures, and enhance dull pieces of furniture, trees etc.

I had no intention of posting, after all, we've all seen snow before, there's nothing left to say... then couldn't resist sharing these with you.

Listening to the fantastic Elbow - 'The Seldom Seen Kid' album.

  2. It's my two dark girls that feel the cold too. One of them in her infinate wisdom desided to sleep outside this morning and had icicles on her head!

  3. Barbara, I think they were perplexed on day 1, and once the sky cleared they cheered up - this morning as soon as they'd been fed they went up the hill for sunrise. Enjoyed your pics.
