I remember snow in the April of 99 - I was a student teacher at the time and it was the first day of 'summer term' - hardly any kids in school as a resourceful pupil had phoned the bus company posing as a member of the senior management team and had cancelled all the buses - I understand that there are now more stringent checks in place after that one lol I haven't made many posts on here, but have really enjoyed reading - plus its been much easier to get an accurate idea of what will happen with the weather here than by following either the meto or the beeb - thanks everyone
