Ah, but if it's true you won't be able to communicate :o  So if you don't tell us it hasn't happened we'll have to assume it has :P
er, yes, I think? ;)

I still can't get my head round Christmas being in the middle of summer. Should be snow on the ground, plump robins visiting the bird table and mistletoe and mulled wine to warm you up.

Good mulch for their gardens, but by the sounds of it they're cleaning it all up and taking it away. ::)

We've got  less snow than that here, Ian - thank goodness.  No idea what tomorrow morning might bring, of course! It's certainly very cold.  :(

Why do we need Dr. Brian Cox or such a National Treasure as Sir Patrick Moore, when we have DN?  ;D ;D

But then we do have Michael Fish !!  ::) ::)

Magnar lives in Harstad  ;) but Stephen near Trondheim also did report snowcover today (or maybe yesterday)!

I've got a couple cms of snow too - extraordinary at this time of the year :-\
