Is there really snow around the country?

Day 273

19 February 2010

Listening to the radio through the week, I've heard repeated travel bulletins about snow causing problems on major routes around the country. It's hard to imagine, given the micro-climate of Swanage. Today it has been sunny; cold but not freezing; and the town has woken up a bit, with daytrippers and half-term holidaymakers peppering the streets and the beach. I've got used to the quiet and the regular familiarity, and so it was a bit strange to suddenly have an influx of unknown faces, albeit welcome!
