So, much ado about nothing here (as I wasn't up at 5am when there was a little something apparently), but hey, it was an appetiser for the rest of the winter I suppose.
I think I'm going to start a crowdfunder page to buy a guest house in the Peak District, and all of us who have to watch the guys from there post on here about how much snow is lashing down will have somewhere to head to so we can join in the fun!
