A white Christmas?

A snow covered tree, Jonathans bike and my car (after some of the snow had melted!)

I know we have all seen snow, but I don't think I've seen as good a fall as this for about 5 years. I always seem to be somewhere else! It was supposed to be my last day teaching at the RSN before christmas, but when they announced they had shut the main road out of Chatham at 7.30 this morning, I went back to bed!

When the snow started to fall yesterday evening, we also had thunder and lightning. I have never experienced that before...
