Il neige

We had our first snowfall today - a day after the UK. The Old Lock looks very picturesque, though it got very noisy this afternoon when neighbours and children gathered for a mammoth snowball fight. Learning a language through play is always effective and we mastered a whole new range of vocabulary during the battle. Sadly the boys also learned that schools in France stay open - whatever the weather!

  1. You are not the only ones with snow. Glenys is surrounded with 6 inches and is staying in!! Here in Shaldon we qre just cold - minus 4 last night and Bimbo wants to stay in by the radiator and really has to be pushed OUT. Then he is back again in three minutes and sits on the hot tub yowling till we let him back in.
