It started off very wet this morning, but by lunchtime it poured with snow. I work at river level, but live on high ground - my lovely hubby managed to collect me at lunchtime but it took ages to get home as we got higher and higher! Traffic everywhere as Dunston Bank and Whickham Bank were closed due to the snow. Its forecast for minus 3 tonight, so if this lot doesn't turn back to rain and melt away, we're going to have a jolly old time getting to work in the morning! It's a long time since I've seen a snow plough clearing the roads, but we passed two on the way home from work. Here are a couple of photos of the garden, plus 
a very nice pigeon with a white tail who visited the bird table at the weekend. If anyone knows what kind of pigeon this is, please leave a comment.

Rain here too. But it will be changing over to sleet come morning. Stay warm.
Hi Mary
Wow look at all that snow!
Maybe you'll be snowed in and won't have to go to work!
Fingers crossed.
