It was really bad yesterday - I didn't want to risk driving anywhere. Both my children's schools were shut and I couldn't get to work because the roads were chaos (and I had no childcare!)

It's not so bad today. My daughter is at school later and I took her to the childminder's this morning. Luckily it's my study day today and my son is out clearing people's drives for pocket money with his mates because his school is still shut (think he's gonna be an entrepreneur when he grows up!)

I can't really be bothered to go shopping today though so think I'll nip to Pets at Home tomorrow when I take my daughter to ballet and buy a couple of boxes of Hi-Life!
