The cold UK weather continues

We had a family party on the weekend at a local hall. It had snowed a fair bit a couple of nights beforehand.

So while the adults stayed inside in the warmth chatting, eating and drinking, the children ventured outside to play in the snow.

We've been up in Banbury (north of Oxford) for a couple of nights, and it has been pretty chilly, a lot of frost and ice and no sign of the sun today.

It's expected to be a white Christmas yippee!

Snow!

It's very cold over here in the UK. We're up in London at the moment and had snow today! It hasn't settled, but later in the week we are expected to get a reasonable amount (in the SE anyway) - see this link.

Took a bus trip to Regents St to the big toy store Hamley's today. Dylan had a great time.

Summer in NZ is a distant memory!

Yikes, where have I been?

Time has disappeared into a black hole recently and I've been neglecting my regular posts..........sorry folks! That's because we are in the Northern Hemisphere for a bit, spending time with my family over the festive period and tripping around England for a few weeks.

Currently we're on the south coast near Portsmouth. It's cold and frosty, snow is predicted for Friday and it's dark at 4pm which makes us feel very tired!

We're enjoying ourselves but missing home hugely. Dylan is having a great time, very excited by it all.

Will see if I can post some photos soon.
