We are currently having one of the heaviest snow falls here in Ireland for quite a few years. It is mid afternoon on Tuesday and it has been snowing on and off since Sunday night. This is the same snow as is affecting most of the UK. They said that the cold spell and snow is coming from Siberia. So here we were trying to get away from the Russian winters and it comes to us. Anyway it is nice to see, actually it makes it feel a little more like winter for the kids, they were having a hard time with Christmas without snow. They have had yesterday and today off school, which they are very happy for.
