Snow?

Last night, reading the weather forecast, I was getting all excited - something to look forward to today, snow. Finally, thought I, a chance to take my son sledging.

The forecast seemed quite definite - heavy snow. Excellent.

So, I tucked myself into bed last night and settled down to sweet dreams of Lovely Girlfriend fully expecting to awake to a slightly late, what with it being spring and all that, winter wonderland. And I woke up and found what? A few flakes in a dark spot of the garden. So instead of rushing off to pick my son up at the last possible moment, I had a bit of a drive around first. I checked on the local hills. No snow - well certainly not enough of the stuff to consider any type of winter sport.

Never mind, however - my plan had one obvious flaw - relying on the weather aside - I don't actually own a sledge.

Sod's Law now means that of course I'll wake up tomorrow and there'll be tons of the stuff, ready for rush hour and a nightmare struggle into work.
