The only fun i've had so far was going sideways into the car park this morning

The 'Deen looks amazing in the snow... but i'm stuck at my desk...

There's a clear foot of it now in Banchory and it's still coming down - the Deeside night cup race at Cambus tonight should be fun!

Every school in Aberdeenshire and Aberdeen City was shut today - except about six and the school I teach at was one of them!! No fair - for me or the kids!! We didn't get much done needless to say!!

Its STILL snowing just now - fingers crossed for a snow day tomorrow!

Yeah gorgeous in the burg today as well... not a cloud in the sky. Just ran home from circuits via blackford hill and got to the top just as the sun was setting. Beautiful.

We even had snow in sunny Hampshire. Albeit a 15 minute shower!! Had problems convincing my class of 6 year olds that they wouldn't find enough to make a snowman!

Loads of snow here, probably a foot and a half or more. Was well tough running in it today, felt you were running in a marsh all the time - dust off the XC ski's i say!

Was running down this forestry road with snow at just under knee level. When i got to the bottom where it had been cleared i met my housemate and a group of walkers putting on their snow shoes to go up the path i'd just gone down! Thought it was quite funny!

Theres about 3 feet of snow outside the window at the moment. I escaped the house this morning to ride jumps on my snowboard. Think I have had between 50 - 60 days on the snow this season so far. Its been some of the best fun I have ever had.

The xc skiing is still good so going to do that after dinner. I am going ski orienteering this weekend which I am really looking forward to. I do skate skiing on classic skis as skate rocks the house. Need to build a DIY map carrier though, like mtbo but you strap it to your belly.

Just got some new soft snowboarding boots for Â£12, bargain. There is a great snowboarding documentary I watched today called first descent, its just out on dvd, check it out its ace.
