We needed to post some Christmas cards today so we thought we'd walk to the postbox the long way round. This would be like going around four sides of a square across the fields. It was snowing a little when we started out and the ground was partly frozen since the temperature dropped a few days ago with night time temperatures going below freezing (26F).

Not long after we started the snow changed to drizzle although there was no discernible change in temperature.

This is what the countryside looked like.

Looks lovely don't it?

We have been threatened with four inches of snow over Thursday night but I'll believe that when I see it.
