Does it get any better than this (a hotwater bottle in your underpants?) - not only is it snowing, but there's enough in the backyard for a snowman AND there's no school to play hookey from.
Up at Ally Pally, the duckpond has virtually all frozen over. So we headed up with our makeshift sleds - a couple of dinner trays (didn't work), the recycling bin lid (didn't work) and a boogie board (worked great!).
Earlier, on Oxford Street, a grudge match went down on the Selfridge's 10,000 pound Barbie Table Soccer set.
Back to the backyard here in Muswell Hill, on Tuesday: temperature, around zero.
This last weekend, before the snow fell but when it got really icy up at Trent Park - half inch sheets on the duckpond, almost (but not quite, as you can see below) thick enough to stand on.
In this very pond back in May or June the kids paddled their feet which were tickled by tadpoles.
At Muswell Hill's newest playground on Thursday.
The Big Snowman we built in Ally Pally on Tues - next day he was gone.
