I have been going down to Anglesey for far too many years, that I care to count, and I have seen on the very odd occasion, snow. However I can not remember every seeing the amount of thick ice that I have seen today. Even right down by the coast. This icicle was only a few feet above the sea on the cliffs opposite the harbour masters office.
This was about 15 inches long, but there were scores more, many clumped together, at least two or three feet long.
There were several groups hanging over the pathway, and as I looked up I thought if one of those snaps and falls, it would go straight through your skull.
I didn't hang around underneath them for very long.
@jb030958 Thank you, Jennie. It is actually a long hanging piece of grass. This type of grass can spread by sending out long roots sideways, because its on a rock face it is hanging down. The water runs down freezes, and hey presto long icicles !
Oh and you are braver than me, I've never fancy a deep fried Mars bar.
