Great news Shizzy, you will have so much fun!

We are off to an outiside BBQ today. It is freezing here in England right now, so it should be fun....

It is freezing here in England right now

You betcha its' a freezing!! It snowed last night. Winter is upon us in force.

It's getting chilly and the temperature drops below zero.
BTW, I'm sick of the earthquake that hit my city again and again.

The east coast of the US is getting pounded with snow this weekend. Everyone was going crazy this morning buying food and XMass gifts in anticipation of getting snowed in.

Well here in malaysia it's hot all year long,how I wish I can go to see the snow some day

I'm sick of the earthquake that hit my city again and again.

I've only experienced one earthquake here in the U.K. It happened while I was in the bath! I felt it too, never experienced it before. I know Japan build houses with shock absorbers to help fight against earthquakes, and teach the Japanese children to hide under there desks in case of one. England has floods, everybody is susceptible to some sort of natural disaster in there own countries, something non of us can control really. The US has hurricanes/Tornado's, interestingly though the US are trying to find some way in which to alter the flight path of hurricanes/tornado's by using shrapnel, like material from a device.

Well, it has stopped snowing, may take a photo and post it here. The weather here in England is so unpredictable you can always have a conversation about it Then again, I always thought snow made Christmas all the more special.

For everyone who does celebrate Christmas, do have a lovely Christmas or Kurisumasu! this year 2009

Everyone was going crazy this morning buying food

Yeah, everyone here in England is doing the same. Worried about being snowed under.

As promised, here's a snowy picture for everyone, I hope you like it too Shizu

It would have been better if there was some snowflakes, but well..I missed them

the scenery is beautiful !

Does it snow a lot in Leeds? Where I live we ended up getting the usual amount of December snow (which happens to be a lot), and the Saturday panic was all for naught. I thought about taking the day off from work to go Ski, but alas I had way to much to do and my conscious won out.

For shizuenjune2 here is what the woods next my house looks like now.

Nice photo Doctorsup! It doesn't snow in England as much as it use to. It is more likely to snow more in the North though as it is the colder side of England. Scotland is the coldest due to the high mountains and high temperatures. It snowed yesterday in Leeds again, so I think it will stay over until Christmas which suits me fine, makes for a very merry merry Xmas, Christmas lights, snow around, a time with your family and friends, a lovely time....and afterwards well...New Year

People are panicking alittle though, shops are sooooo busy! It was like we were all locked inside a tin of sardines at our local Morrisions & Sainsbury's! There were no trolley's left too!! We, my family; had to wait for some trolley's to become free in the car park. Oh, and the ice made it all the more fun, especially for the cars & trolley's! haha!

Its' just so cold though, but it is nice to spend time with my family at this time of the year!

EDIT: Its' snowing again! Time check 10:40pm

Here where I am in Spain it doesn't snow but yesterday in Barcelona it was raining a lot and I got soaked!!! D:

Today I'm in Llançà again, just in time to celebrate christmas with my family ^^ I think I explained this before, but tonight in Spain we celebrate "Nochebuena" (which means something like "good night"). In Catalonia, we have the tradition of "cagar el tió" that consists of trying to make poo presents from a piece of wood called tió by hitting him with a stick and singing a song.

Here you can see a good video in english of how "cagar el tió" works XDD



Nowadays we don't do anymore the thing about sardines and nougat, but just little presents. There are a lot of catalan families (the ones who are the most catalan) that don't celebrate christmas and just give presents this way, and also the 5th of January when "Los reyes" is celebrated.

Me and my family "cagant el tió" last year:

Interesting how different cultures celebrate Christmas, Thank you TC for the insight into the Spanish culture.

Here are the final photos, these were taken today on Christmas Eve in Leeds. Alot of cars were in chaos today.

Happy Xmas!

Merry Christmas to you all. I hope you all get what you wished for and have a great day.

Seasons Greetings.
