We finally have a couple or 3 inches of snow. Just when I hoped it had passed us by!

Damned salt it's everywhere! Salt on my glasses,on my windows,cutting into my dog's paws,on my door,in my mouth,in my ears,on my boots,even in the air, so we're breathing it in! If i never see,taste or come into contact with salt ever again it won't be too soon!

Just started snowing again here in South Wales. There goes any hope of going out tomorrow.

Just as well you live nowhere near the sea.

I neutralise it by walking him in the unsalted snow. If he refuses to walk in it, i hold him and move him around in a circular motion to hopefully remove the salt/grit.

Had a fresh dusting of snow overnight, it didn't stick on the drive where I had gritted, so we have a clear path for the postie and any other visitors, but it's slowly melting anyway. Should begin to warm up tomorrow, hopefully.

No snow since Thursday, but there are still no trains running! From the Scotrail website:
On Thursday, CalMac withdrew all the ferries on the Wemyss Bay to Bute service because of the weather. There was very little wind, just snow - and really not an excessive amount of that. Why do snow showers prevent a ferry sailing anyway? Being a natural cynic, I am beginning to think that some of our public "services" see the weather as a convenient excuse to close down operations.
