OK, it snowed.

Yesterday was very cold.
I went to the hairdressers in Coleshill at 2.00pm, it was sprinkling snow when I arrived & about 1cm of snow when I came home at 4.00pm.
The car made a horrible noise all the way home, which G tells me was something to do with the traction control coping with the snow.
By the time I got home radio 4 had the weather news from around the country, starting with Lichfield - "2cm of snow, shops had closed early & the cathedral looked wonderful".
What do the Danes think of us?
The thaw had set in by this morning but the ungritted lanes near home were snowy & it is freezing, so tomorrow may be difficult.

P, A, J & Th have been to lunch - a leg of lamb & roast vegetables which cooked whilst I took Morning Prayer at NW. We've had a cosy afternoon, ending with tea & scones & chocolate cake.
We have watched the recording of antiques Road Show - a repeat of a recent programme - why? - & Top Gear is now on!!!
A quiet week pending - tennis looks doubtful - balls don't bounce on snow - gym, family visit, holiday shopping.....

The Telegraph is starting a campaign to improve maths in school - watch this space
