I know this picture doesn’t really represent snow, but we didn’t have any!
However…. most of the rest of Yorkshire did!. I was supposed to go to Rochdale on a test, but didn’t make it in the end so had to do other things instead after I got as far as Durker on the M1, saw the queue ahead and the snow on the hills and got a little bit scared. It wasn’t great on the roads but worse still – all the idiots were out and about.
I did finish the day with a trip on the trains to York (sadly, I didn’t take any photos in York as I was in a rush) however, I did see one thing on the train home… an old guy got on the train from Doncaster to Swinton who was wearing leather trousers. Naturally… I did what any normal person would and sneaked a photo using my pocket PC (hence the really crap quality).
I also now have a flash hood (looks like a shower cap) – hopefully I can mute the flash a little in the close up pictures… I really hope it works. Now all I need is a small bean bag…
