Thanks to David (DEW), I think I've solved the hosting photos problem....   No more Photobucket copyright marks!

Today's walk in the woods above the house.

Beachen Woods, Grantown

Looking south

Good day for dog walks

A slippery bridge

Hopefully there'll be more snow overnight and better pictures tomorrow.

 

Oops!  They're a bit squashed.

Nice Pics !

Down here in the tropical South the last snow of any sort we saw here was 2018 - here's hoping

There is a 500pixel width limit on external pics on the TWO site which is why we have this squashed up effect

Glad to have been of service, especially since this could well be the only snow I'll see this year!

Lovely pictures and thanks for the right click tip.

Although we can still manage an occasional frost here in Dorset, snow is as rare (well almost) as hens teeth. 

When the local rag gets excited like this you know somethings changed.

Stunning, love these. Hopefully more to come this winter. Some of these pictures look Nordic or Canadian in terms of landscape, light and fauna, brilliant 😎👍

Lovely comments, thank you.  What a difference sunshine and a blue sky make!

Unfortunately no blue skies today - still a bit of snow though.

We have quite a bit and some sun today to show it off.
Through the afternoon the wind picked up and you could see snow blowing about higher up which I managed to catch on video - still uploading though we can still only have 0.5mb up speed.

Looks great. Would you like to export a little of the inconvenience down south? Be glad to help you out.

 

Is it all high up or is there snow down to sea level?
