Painless is looking at his house right now with snow halfway up to the bedroom windows and scratching his head thinking "Those poor Brits with a whole 2 inches of Snow, we get that in the first hour in October".

The Met Office issued a snow weather warning for South Gloucestershire for this morning. And they were right. There must have been at least 30 or 40 snow flakes landed in my back garden. It has now stopped.
