still falling here, in fact if anything in the last half hour its got harder.

I love snow!

Cambridge students are a boring lot though, clearly most people have to struggle to work since it isnt really that deep, but the only snowman Ive seen is in the grounds of the institute of botany! there isnt a single snowball being thrown in the college, and the only other person I saw with a camera was a college porter. Surely not every student can have lectures first thing on a Thursday morning?

If this was Nottingham, the campus would be crawling with photographers dodging snowballs.

Most of the snow had already melted, but it still looks pretty

that is, unless I am much mistaken, the front of Kings College Cambridge

I didnt realise there were any other Tek types down here.

It has, alas, stopped snowing up on the hill too now so its starting to melt
:(

Still, took lots of photos on my way in to work this morning so hopefully some of them will have worked out.

Certainly not very nice to drive in.  But it means less fu***rs are on the road.  Such as the ones thinking its smart to overtake on country lanes.

Thought I had a perfect journey on the way to work, then I slip on and land on my backside.  Hurts more when you have items in your back pockets

snow does tend to bring out the "Im driving a 4x4 so nothing can hurt me" brigade though.

If you were watching the news around 6:45, then there was the amusing sight of a Discovery Towing some cheap daewoo (i think) 4x4.

Snowed all day here. Just a snapshot from my phone of a snowball fight that was just kicking off outside my uni buildings earlier on before the heavier snow started.
