It snowed in October when I was a kid.

I hope that fifteen years of gash mild winters are over and we're going back to proper winters.

I got an awesome down-lined one from H&M of all places a couple of years back. I've worn it with nothing but a T-shirt under it when its been -5 outside and been fine.

So today (after being woken at 3:45 AM by hailstones setting off car alarms outside) I'll be throwing it on along with my peaked beanie and skelebob hand gloves for the slog to work. I'll probably need to unzip it after 15 mins to cool down...

We were going to, but we kept thinking the train/bus would be here 'any minute'. Plus we weren't really dressed for the occasion, it wasn't even raining when we left the flat!

That first pic is . I went to collect my girlfriend from Heathrow at about 5am last April when there was a freak overnight snowstorm. The snow was coming down so hard and so fast that I couldn't see past the end of the bonnet.

Absolutely bricked it and slowed down to about 15-20mph and then had to creep along the road using the sat nav to tell me which way the road was going. One of the scariest drives of my life.
