Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow ...

Another day full of snowing, so I thought I'd share what it looks like outside the house at the moment! There's about 4-6 inches or 10-15 cm or so here, and temperatures are set to drop.

Nice afro there, bird table!

I also put together a little video for illustrative purposes! :)



What's the weather like at the moment where you are?

    bah, humbug.
    we got some 5 inch over night, and it's still coming down.. and I'd find it all very idyllic and nice if I didn't have to leave the house. chaos in traffic & public transportation, slippery ground and no time for snowball fights.
    don't mind the snow in general but the timing sux. Saturday would have been purrfect.
    Then again, it IS winter after all... :)
    love the afro pic :).. just had an idea for a cute 'PS painting'

    Totally jealous--here in Colorado, we are parched. No appreciable snow yet, except in the high mountains, and none in the forecast.

    Enjoy your snow...wish we had some!

    In Uppsala we have rather mild weather at the moment. Just -8 degrees C (we had about -20 yeasterday). I guess a couple of decimetres of snow and the roads work well. Thankfully there is no salt on them this year, so going by bike is about as easy as in the summer. Maybe easier; there are fewer of us idiots on the biking-roads.

    We've had school buses cancelled at least once a week for the past three weeks. It doesn't want to quit snowing here! But it is beautiful and not too cold once the shovelling is done.

    @TTN: I'm sure the "PS painting" will be gorgeous. (Hm, RA in an afro ... now there's a ... very weird thought!) The snow has caused a lot of issues in Britain too, but I stayed at home and worked from there Wed/Thu so didn't have to go out and become a statistic. Hubby drove me in today, as the main roads are okay, but I've only had my licence a bit over a year so I'm not very confident driving in these conditions. Keep warm and hopefully you can get to enjoy the snow over the weekend!

    @JaneGS: Is it cold and frosty in Colorado so there could be snow but just isn't, or is it too warm? I really don't know what the Colorado climate is like. Hopefully you'll get some snow eventually! :)

    @V064: Heh, -20 over here is headline news. So no salt? Do they just use grit then or how do they make the roads not slippy? I never used my bike in the snow in Sweden. But then I didn't have very far to school, and when I did, it was too far to ride a bike anyway! :)

    @phylly3: We actually don't have a snow shovel, I realised yesterday. Perhaps we should get one, just to clear the drive a bit. Sure, there's not loads and loads of snow on there, but it will make it quicker to melt and less slippy once it starts melting. I like snow, it's very pretty, and I can imagine it looks really astonishingly beautiful where you are! :)

I thought there should be a list like this. Maybe there already is, I've just not seen it yet. It's not a massive list by the time of posting this (25 points), but I'm hoping you'll help me come up with more so that one day it will be. :) Last updated: 14 June 2012, the list so far: You know you're a Richard Armitage fan when ...

Richard Armitage will never be himself on TV

One of the interesting comments Richard Armitage was when an interviewer asked him, because he's a great dancer, is if we'd ever see him on something like Strictly Come Dancing . His response was that we'd never get to see Richard Armitage as Richard Armitage on TV. Basically, he's not the kind of celebrity to show up as soon as someone waves an invite to a reality TV show. Richard Armitage as himself. On telly. But not in a reality show. Things that make me love and respect the man: +1! Before I read that interview, I was thinking about him on Strictly , and then started to think of a host of other reality TV shows and whether or not he would be a suitable candidate. This is what I came up with ... Top Gear What it is: This is a car show, or ... a comedy show with cars in, depending on how you look at it. Rupert Penry-Jones and Peter Firth came on it to promote series 7 (?) of Spooks , so why not Richard Armitage? He does drive a car, after all ... Why ...

And you call yourself a Richard Armitage fan?

It's been just about a year since I wrote that post about IF Richard Armitage was gay, what's it got to do with us ? This has since become the most read and the most commented post on this blog, for better or for worse. Hotly debated issue, apparently. The thing that strikes me is how people look upon the subject. A lot of comments were very supportive, saying if he was gay, it might spoil the illusion somewhat, but all in all, if that's who he is, then that's who he is. Others claimed to have evidence of him being a homosexual, but from what I gather, it's really only based on hearsay, rumourmongering and/or "gut feelings". Personally, I'd be interested to hear a gay man's views on this. Why? Because everyone in the debate is female, and the vast majority, if not all, are straight. Ever heard the term "gaydar"? Whose gaydar is more likely to be accurate - a straight female's or a homosexual male's? I know who I'd vote for...
