It’s Official! . The snow showers are expected to start off in the northwest of the UK on Christmas Eve. By Christmas Day, they are expected to be heavier and could crop up almost anywhere with northern and western areas expected to see the majority. While a covering of snow is picturesque,
That was from the BBC website,
Gonna get it a bit sideways here and a bit there!
But carefully controlled of course and then the wifey may hide the keys and say so playing today! 
Always use TC in snow if your lucky enough to have it.

Yes, I'd heard you had snow over there.
I trust you went and had fun with it..? 
All we had here was an irritating frost

Hope you all had a great time
I spent most of the day in the pool and hot tub
Now I need to find the AfterSun cream ..
Seriously, Christmas without UK weather just didn't seem the same.

I got a few cold snow balls in the ear, so I wouldnt mind the hot tub to tell you the truth!
At this point it was -1c according to the trusty Scorpio in dash thermometer,
