No wine for me just yet.

daughter bought me one of those beer advent calendar things and I'm just making the most of a nice ale courtesy of December 2nd.

then it's pork chops and wedges washed down by another beer or two before maybe it's wine o'clock.

nowt else to do on a dark, damp winter's night with sod all on the telly and a lie in tomorrow.

Compared to the '79 pics, the worst i've seen snowdrifts in this area was in late March 2013, couldn't even venture up to the higher levels such as Kinder/Bleaklow/Shining Tor because the majority of the routes were cut-off and footpaths impassible. Pictures simply don't do it justice.

Thanks for the pics I'm drinking another beer now blocking it all out

Weird ain' it.. I've worked in Wigan many years ago, left Horwich with a good 6 inches of snow, by the time I got to wigan it was only a Dusting. That' what a bit of height does for you.
