This was the sight that greeted us as we left the pub quiz this evening. Considering that two hours earlier there was hardly any snow to be seen, this was quite an impressive sight.

Shortly after this photo was taken an impromtu snowball fight ensued between the patrons of The Crown Hotel in Wootton Bassett High Street. There’s nothing finer than watching a group of middle-aged children whooping and hollering as they throw handfulls of snow at each other. Suffice to say, one’s aim is greatly improved after the consumption of several glasses of red wine. Suffice to say also, one’s aim is improved when one’s target has consumed several tankards of cider and is lolloping around in the snow like a beached whale.

I think we came fifth in the quiz.
