Where is my 10-15cms?! (I hope none of you hear that too often)

We have a layer about 1cm thick - in places where it has "drifted" against a wall.

I was this disappointed once in my life. When my Mum told me I could definitely feed the reindeer next year as I'd be old enough then. And a couple of months later admitted it wouldn't happen because Father Christmas didn't exist. "But, can I still feed the reindeer?" I asked, poor simple child.

It's still snowing. But snow later in the day doesn't really count. Like getting a late birthday present. I'll finally forgive the world if it does reach 10cm, but frankly that's unlikely.

I do have another reason for this rather petulant attitude. I decided to be weather-appropriate for once in my life and wore a new pair of trousers to work. Frankly they are too tight still, by at least 2 weeks. And they pinched my flaps all the way in, leaving me more than a little regretful at my choice. I also feel I have to hide again today because my thighs look like two grey pinstriped sausages about to split their skins. BIG sigh. Silly, because 2 weeks ago I wouldn't even have fit into them.

Edited: I can upload photos now, and it's still snowing so I'm a little bit happier... These were taken on Victoria Park - general scene and grit lorry
