An appropriate title for the blog and one sure to get Bowie fans in a lather \ud83d\ude09 Just a few shots of the views around here following last night's blizzard. The snow eventually stopped at just before 4.00am having deposited up to 6 inches of snow. Amazingly most of the roads were cleared fairly quickly, but not all of them; and not mine (which is still more skating rink than road surface). These shots were taken in the garden and then on my walk to recover my car from where I'd abandoned it last night.

I'd left my car a couple of hundred yards north of these, before the downhill section! This is the view just beyond where I'd parked.

The road to work was remarkably clear given the extent of last night's snow. I passed many abandoned cars strewn across the road on the way, all of which had been cleared by this evening. Thankfully there's a slow thaw continuing through tonight, but if the temperature drops later conditions could be tricky in the morning. Locally, it is still very icy.<\/p>\n

'What no wildlife?' Well no photos apart from these fox tracks left in the garden.

And of course the inevitable video sequence. The first two edits show one of the foxes recovering an egg buried in the snow.<\/p>\n
