I thought a Dalek WAS a dustbin.

It was Radio 5 which prompted me to go looking for the picture as they mentioned there was one ion the web. I wonder were they looking at a February picture too

Here is today's pic, showing just how much white stuff there is:

No doubt the Met Office will be digging out their green crayons to change it back so they can prove we had the warmest month since records began.

Ironic that Cockermouth seems to be the only part of England without snow! I also spot some of Anglesey and Stranraer...

A few of the Western Isles too.

If any town deserves a break from mother nature right now it is Cockermouth.

Sad but true.

Also amazing that Ireland, which in a global scheme of things is right next door, seems to have very little. Its a conspiracy by Mother Nature, I tell yer....
