More tales from the riverbank

It stopped raining before Christmas, just in time to freeze and snow.  This afternoon we had a blizzard which blocked all the main roads in a matter of minutes and even the normally mild coastal areas were wiped out for a time.  (The single track side roads inland have been impassable for weeks).  In LlanfairTH we had up to 9 inches of snowfall in about 3 hours, so, unsurprisingly, our meeting tomorrow is CANCELLED.  If I can get out of the house in the morning I will post some photos.  In the meantime, here is a nice cheery and unsnowy picture of a touch of hoarfrost on ivy.

  2. I have been walking up and down the hill, and using the bus. I got stranded in Rhyl yesterday afternoon; all the buses were cancelled apart from the service along the coast road. A Very Kind Person rescued me in a 4x4, and drove the long way round down the lane from the top in order to deliver me to my front door.
