I am surrounded by people from the continent at the college, and have for some time been hearing how it is the law that when it snows people have a responsibility to clear the snow from in front of their houses. I have been inspired by this, if I can't prune trees or rake leaves then I'll clear the snow from foot paths and the drive up to the college. After the last snow we had it became a little treacherous on the drive where the snow had been compressed and then frozen again and become ice. So this is a little bit of a preventative measure, before the students come back at the end of the week I hope the drive will be safe and clear for people and taxis to move up and down freely. I've also found it's a great way to meet the neighbours as they walk up and down.
Stay safe and don't forget to clear your drive, it's going to stay cold so everywhere will become an ice rink if you don't ;0)
