- snowman or anything made of snow ( remember this is a family forum!)

- no photos of children PLEASE without parental consent.

- as many entries as you wish!

- closing date 28 February 2018 10pm.

- winners will be chosen through a poll, and the prize will be a packet of French carrot seeds

good luck ....and have fun

I have all my intricate architectural plans ready.................just need some snow now...............bring it on.

p.s if me and VC don't get any can we cheat again?

[veggiechicken]

I'll be cheating whether we have snow or not. I don't DO snow

[Greenleaves]

If we get any this year Lumpy I will send you mine

So if you recieve a big soggy box you know it's from me

Brilliant idea VC but its just not the same as stumbling out of bed, opening the curtains and being mesmerised by a snowy scene outside.

I have been absorbed because - a few years ago I got up for a tiddle about 5am and happened to look out the window. Loads of the stuff had landed while I was asleep. Insisted that the OH got up so we could be the first to walk on the snow. A while later with alot of complaining (not from me) we managed to get outside so I could strut my stuff.

I was nearly in tears when I saw that the piggin milkman and clomped his huge feet all over MY pristine snow..........................many unrepeatable words were said.

*wonders if there will be entries into the competition this weekend!...

Enjoy!

Can I add a photo of a snowman I saw a few years ago someone made outside a pub?

[cariann88]

Ooops never mind. Just noticed the rules. Can't cheat now :P

Built today by myself and my 6 year old daughter. We never officially named him so I’m calling him Bert. I wanted to add proper snow arms but my daughter insisted it had to be twigs (or bamboo cane in this case). He’s about 5ft tall.
