The message from "Pete C" contains these words:

Can't believe it - we actually had snow this morning and quite a lot
of it for about ten minutes. *It's gone now and none of it lay on the
ground, the sun is shining and comparative normality is restored.
But apparently, up on the moor children are playing snowballs!

Started here about 7am. Laid on gardens etc, but not roads. Stopped at 1pm,
and started again about 3pm. Still coming down, but not laying. I wonder
what tonight will bring?


We`attended an AGM this afternoon. *There were people attending
from all over Scotland - apart from the people who couldn't get
here for all the snow - and everyone was amazed that there wasn't
a single drop of snow in Perth. *Not a single flake, while the rest
of the country is covered in the stuff!

Do not fear to be eccentric in opinion, for every opinion
now accepted was once eccentric. *~Bertrand Russell (1872-1970)


In 1966 I did a 4 weeks Safari in East Africa with the temp around
100f a lot of the time, came home a week before Easter, and 4 days
later we had 6 inches of Snow which hung around for a couple of days,
this was in Hastings, Sussex, but then we had no global warming, just
much colder winters.
We also had heavy hailstorms in August in those days
