The snow did last and it looked magical. We did make a snowman too. This was one from later in the day, earlier in the day we had blue sky and everywhere looked beautiful. This is one of my favourite scenes from today, but take a look at my blog to see the rest - http://roachling.blogspot.co.uk/2014/12/winter-wonderland.html
@claireuk Thanks for the comment on the blog too - it took me a while to make the connection, then I realised it was you! Glad you enjoyed the photos :)
