Well, over the last few days the snow has started to wash away. The temperature has been up a little, so it didn't all re-freeze to create one, big ice-rink.
I did take some pictures whilst out and about. Durham, in particular, was spectacular at the weekend. We drove down there on Saturday morning to hook Ciara up with a new passport; while she was in the passport office I took a walk along the river, which looked awesome...
They say the snow may be coming back again. In fact I think there were a few airports further down the country closed today. We're not really used to these conditions here and I think the majority would be happy they didn't see any more snow this year. Whilst it can be annoying for getting around and it serves no practical purpose to me locally, I still welcome it!

Dude, just been told about a relatively local place where you can go boarding - one I'd never heard of before. It's a place called Yad Moss; here's the link:

Thought you might be interested. They've even got a pomme lift rather than a rope tow, they still have snow, and the slope's about 4 times the length of Silksworth. Will was there on the weekend and reckoned it's pretty damned good.
Oh, forgot to mention, it's just south of Alston. :)
A quick vid too: YouTube
Thanks for that mate; as it happens, someone else let me know about it a few weeks back, but it was new to me too :)
Fancy trying it out? ;)
Mate, if you can lend me the requisite gear, I am 1000% up for it. Got no board, boots or pants, remember... :-/
Actually, the boots are gonna be a problem, aren't they? Knackers.
