Sick of the snow

Stuck in the house.

Looking for something to do?

Want to write but motivation not forth coming?

Oh tell me about it. Last night and today the powers that be decided to dump another six to eight inches on top of the snow we already had and have had since before Christmas. I'll tell you, not happy, not happy at all.

Oh yes, the news and the weather forecast tell you different 'Shropshire had another two inches today' not in south Shropshire they didn't, it was chucked in bucket loads and very big buckets at that. Check out Simon's blog because not only did we have inches of snow, we also had winds and drift.

Me I've totally had enough of it. I haven't been able to get my car out to go to the shops. No I'm not being precious the nearest shop to me is five miles away along untreated roads, not a good idea in a new sports car with wide tyres that my son informed me when I got it that it will skid like a bas***d.

But never mind all the stuff about the weather. We've got long, cold winter evenings to fill and there's only so much television you can watch. So for the fiction writers amongst you who don't want their precious typing fingers to seize up check out competitions. Most of them only cost pennies to enter and who knows. So for information on UK + writing competitions check out .prizemagic.co.uk/html/writing_comps.htm and cheer up your long winter evenings.

Good luck
