I was walking through the wood again in the snow and just thought I'd share a bit of video I took as I went. Poor quality but its a still camera first and foremost, so what the hey!

This is the main road in, about 6 inches of frozen snow/ice, with whatever depth of snow falls overnight on top.
apologies for the music:o but the original sound track was just scraping, knocking and scuffing noises!:rolleyes:
hope this gives a picture of what its like here at the moment;)

I don't know about Chopwell but there's actually a bit of a thaw going on here in Ponteland!

Just overnight, it's finally started to melt a little.
sod's law of course:rolleyes: me and the two kids ( hah! 17 & 22 ) spent 3 hours yesterday, clearing the drive and junction out front, right down to the tarmac, only to finally have the council send a blxxdy tractor with a snowplough, round this morning.
The plough has effectively blocked the cul de sac, as well as everybody's drive ways, with a 2 ft high wall of slushy ice!
Bless em:rolleyes:
Still, at least they are trying here, unlike at Prudhoe; where the main drag along the industrial strip of Princess Way, still looks the same as our estate road did yesterday.
anyway stay warm;)

yup the thaw is on here too. I'm delighted. :D
EDIT: I was delighted until I got a call from work, I had to go in to sort out the bizillion leaks that have sprung in pipes in the byre. Damage limitation was a success though. It was a nightmare getting hold of a plumber, I guess other folk have found themselves in a similar situation.
