With the newspapers and TV news programmes full of global warming ,nature chose for Britain to freeze over the festive season.
The snow fell across the east side of the country in the week before Christmas and although Wigtown was spared for many days, it fell heavily on Saturday night. Sunday saw snow everywhere and the snow is still around days after Christmas. More falls are predicted. There may be a White Hogmanay, or New Year, to go with the White Christmas.
The children had a great time sledging and making snowmen. However, Sharon's wheelchair does not feature a skis option and so she is happily wrapped up in the warmth indoors.
