Snow in Oxford

This is what we woke up to this morning! A few inches of snow. How exciting! Who would have thought we'd get the first proper snow of Winter in April?!?! We had just planted some seedlings out in the back garden the day before - oops. William was fairly nonplussed by it all. Perhaps if it snows next year he'll realise the potential for sledging.




We took him to South Parks to check out the action where we found some people who were rolling a snowball from the top of the park. We helped them when it got too large for them to push by themselves. Then it became too large for four adults to push, so we recruited more volunteers, and kept pushing it down the hill until 6 adults could no longer budge it. It was a sphere of 6 foot diameter - the biggest in the whole park! Check it out:
