I ain't never seen nuffink like it, 'specially in November!
Every time the wee footpath snow plough goes round, it leaves a foot high mound of snow in front of my parking space. Yesterday, I had just finished digging said space out, when round it came - again. "Ho ho ho!" I felt the driver chortle, as he kindly deposited yet another foot-high ridge for me to shovel away.
Then of course there's the big road snow plough, which leaves even bigger mountains - and more shovelling. We haven't seen him today - yet. I have to go and dig out yet again to take Paul to work - what's the odds on the snowplough going round just after I've dug out? Aargh....
It's been like this since Wednesday night - I am soooo fed up with shovelling.
Update 5 December: There are mountains of snow everywhere! Minus 21 on Friday 3rd. MINUS TWENTY-ONE! Four foot long icicles, two feet deep in snow.

I popped over to Inverurie at lunch time. The scenery was absolutely stunning - bright blue sky, wall to wall sunshine, the brightness of all the snowy hills - - and -12 at noon! Our temerature at home this eveneing was a balmy minus 17, and dropping!

Our garden this morning - eight inches of snow in 24 hours!
Mad as March hares? Our intrepid mariners Paul and Tim take to the water and chance their luck at rafting the River Don from Monymusk to Kemnay.

Early November - sunny days, clear nights, golden trees by the River Don - a perfect Indian summer.
