Sheffield's version of conquering the South Pole!!

As the snow in Sheffield has been so bad, everyone on our road has been literally snowed in today!! :shock: We woke up at 5am to 18 inches on our driveway / road with a snowdrift up our back door - with more snow since & it continuing to snow now!!

About 1 hour ago Mark & I finished trying to dig our way out of our house along with a group of our neighbours :shock: We then started to clear as much of the snow that we could in the turning circle on our road & clear pathways to our cars.

Even though it's a nightmare with the weather & I'm fed up of it :evil: we had to laugh we turned round to find one of the neighbours had decided to put a flag in the huge pile snow..........and his boots to look like he was buried! :lol::lol::lol:

Looking at the snow now though, I think the couple hours digging snow might have been a waste of time!!!! :roll::lol:

At Gleadless so not far from your family - honestly it's a bloomin nightmare!!

Anyone got a snow plough to lend us? :lol:
 
Hehehehe thanks guys :)

Yep it's still snowing!! It stopped for a couple of hours at lunchtime while we were out clearing snow, but we've now got it heavy again!! :?

So two hours of digging was a waste of time!!!! :evil:

Think it will be a repeat performance tomorrow!!! :roll:

The forecast was more snow overnight & tomorrow, none Friday - then more Saturday & Sunday!!

Instead of singing to myself 'let it snow, let it snow, let it snow' - I'm singing 'let it NOT snow, let it NOT snow, let it NOT snow!!!' :lol::lol::lol:
 
reminds me of what we had earlier in the year :shock: im going to sheffield in february hope its gone by then :lol:
 
Wow you have it bad!!! I work in Sheffield (Chapeltown) but didn't make it in today - only 3 of us did!!! I spent the morning digging paths to the back garage door, bunny shed and Libby's hutch, and clearing our gates, although I gave up on the front garage door as there is no way I can get the car out!!! However, it is snowing again, so probably Round 2 tomorrow!!! Be safe xxx

Your day sounds like ours Gaynor - we didn't make it into work either.

It might sound a bit daft but I'm fretting about running out of hay even though Mark only fetched 2 bales on Monday!!!

It's snowing again over here, so like you say round 2 coming up tomorrow!! :(
 
Flippin eck we would have NO chance of finding you now would we;):lol::lol::lol:

Nope I'm afraid you wouldn't Kay - mind you might have a better chance of getting up our road in your car. We haven't got a prayer in ours - well that's if we could get it out!!! :lol::lol::lol:
