Every year when weeding or planting bulbs for customers these wee buggers are jumping about very close looking for insects to scoff. I keep offering/inviting them into my hand to eat. I have been close a few times but still not managed to get one to land.

Nothing in terms of snow here, but jeepers it's a cold year at the moment.

Normally i'd LOVE this as it's perfect winter MTB weather... but currently with the remnants of the lurgy, i'm not riding so it's just cold instead.

No snow here thank God but a very thick frost. I found out something positive about icy cold weather, it makes picking up dog shit easier! :thumbup:

A couple of years ago before the advent of visitor cat,I had one eating mealworms out of my hand. Such a cool thing.

Epic, all we got was a light dusting and hard frost which is a smidge disappointing.

All the folks in Brighton are complaining that the snow is "way too white"
They are campaigning for more inclusive snow in future
