What a great idea ! We should do it with other settings, I have staff living closer to other settings and I know we have other settings staff in our village, could have a contingency plan of who goes where in the event of snow, would be great for building relationships with other settings too ....but it’s too late now i’ve sorted the policy ! 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here. I just wish it would do one or the other and done with. Very cold in our hall today - even my husband said so, so it must be cold! I haven't been in but he collected the mobile ready for morning if needed. He said we must be living in a micro climate as our front drive was the warmest place he'd been all day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnonyMouse_5970 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 We have lots of snow but my fabulous staff have all made it in and we are open. All the local schools closed as is the nearest other daycare! We'll have a lovely morning out in the garden then come in to warm up with spag bol for lunch . Beautiful dog walk this morning. My two year old Goldendoodle had never experienced snow and had a ball. It has made her naughty though. She comes to work with me and has spent the day so far stealing wellies 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_22029 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 We had quite a lot of snow yesterday and a bit of a blizzard. But it disappeared so quickly. Had to leave nurserybuilding to go stand alone shed /fridge to get milk leaving footprints. In the minute it took me to walk back all footprints were covered. My weather app told me to expect snow at 7.36 this morning but still no snow!! Hubby says years ago met office used to pay locals all over world to watch and report weather conditons so forecasting was quite accurate. However They have "restructured" and no longer have the weather watchers which is why it is back to simple prediction. So the wait and see approach is best. ❄❄❄⛄⛄ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(just for a second you made me feel a bit guilty - but only for a second - I soon came to my senses ) I live on the edge of a village green and whilst I have been watching the snow fall (it's mesmerising) I have conducted some important research re doggies - lots of intrepid dog walkers out - so I have come to the conclusion that the labs and border collies are loving the snow - haven't seen any spaniels - did see one poor little terrier his/her tummy was dragging in the snow and he/she looked thoroughly fed up, poor little thing........ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_14268 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Bright blue sky and brilliant sunshine here, cold but not as raw as yesterday. Sunnyday you made me think of my lovely old dog (a spaniel) the last time we had snow (8 years ago) we went sledding and he just loved it and had the best morning. At the end of the morning he had snow balls hanging off his chest! Bless him🐶💔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnonyMouse_8282 Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 We've had a half day, mainly due to the extreme cold in our scout hut which is on the edge of playing fields and open farmland. The threat of snow did help make the decision. The hall was COLD!!!!..... so cold that children didn't even bother trying to play in the toilets like they usually do! Parents seemed happy with the compromise of half day. According to the weather maps, we are 2miles from orange alert- and I have to say as I drove home it was strange seeing sun shine and green - then in the near distance total whiteout! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
