Sorry mate.     You must miss him.         They may make a mess but it’s easy cleanable. I have ASTRO TURF so cleans easy and gets  disinfected. 

Suppose he s had too learn to climb trees to hide his bones now they can't be buried

Well i was going to hibernate till next winter, but if there is even a slim chance of snow(as some models suggest) within the next 10 days i'll postpone that.

 

Maybe on the 10th day or just beyond.

Well here it was certainly very cold, and windy, and it snowed on and off for 4 days. But the end result the night before the thaw was 8cm, think it had been a bit more than that, like 10cm after some heavy showers on Weds evening but I mainly had lots of flurries, some heavy ones, but still only flurries.

I was surprised to have falling and setting snow for 5 days. We dont normally get it here with an easterly.  as to far north in east anglia but also further inland.

Places furtherwest do better sometimes though on an easterly, people forget this sometimes. Remember the Polysterene ice pellets that hit Southend in 2009 when everywhere in the SE got piles of snow:?

I know in 2010 the whole country was covered in snow apart from upland in east anglia. We were the only ones who didn’t even get a flake. Lol

I can remember more snow events Easter that around Christmas, it can still snow in the SE for well over a month from now though, I remember heavy snow in Kent and Essex in late April, don't hang around long though of course. But am just as happy if Easter is BBQ weather...I know what, you can do us a BBQ for easter, I hear you have some goat over your way, mmm, sounds lovely, BBQ curried goat at Lassie's place.

Yes its a strange old thing the weather, i usually do just slightly better than London here. So if London gets 5-6 cm, I might have 8-10cm around this way.

As for heavy and deep settled around here the top 3 years that I can remember anyway are as follows:

1st 1987

2nd 1991

3rd 2009
