It's the third and heaviest snowfall this week, so far it hasn't disrupted any transport, when I was a walk with Holly in the park there were "hundreds" of children sledging, well that's what it looked like.

Don't worry, I am sure where you live there will be snow in the next few days.

She is a beautiful dog, you are very kind to walk her

Holly is my neighbours dog, he let's me take her walks, I own a cat, Holly and my cat get on very well.

We had quite a bit of snow on Tuesday, it went icy on Wednesday so we didn't run, we walked instead. This morning there was a little bit of new snow on the cars but the pavements and roads are mostly clear

The snow was at it's heaviest between 9 and 10 today, when I went out that walk with Holly it was dry, however, there has been a little light rain ☔ over the last hour but there is still a lot of snow lying on the ground, I wish you and your family a very Happy New Year, I wonder when parkruns and event runs will resume in 2021. 😊 🏃🏾

That's a lovely photo of Hollie in the snow 😀Still no snow here - though its hovering just under zero degrees so definitely cold enough.

For the children in your area I hope it snows, when I was walking through the park with Holly this morning there must have been around 20 children playing and sledging in the snow, very flustrating for children looking at other children playing in the snow on TV and where they live there is no snow., I am happy that you like the photo of Holly the dog. 😊

Holly is beautiful AlMorr. Buddy and I are just in from our walk . Snow seems to be melting now 🐕🐕❄

AlMorrAmbassadorGraduate in reply to Buddy34

There is now a slow thaw of the snow with a little light rain, if it freezes tonight, it will be very icy tomorrow morning, let me wish you, your husband and Buddy a very Happy New Year.

I bet she does! 😍 My dogs do too, although my youngest has only seen snow once in his life and he's nearly 4!

There hasn't been much snow over the last few years, however, when we do get it, it's nice to see.

Awww how wonderful Al. My dog loves the snow too, but none here yet. ❄️

Holly looks like a lovely dog and I bet you’re helping your neighbour out a lot by walking her. 🐾

My neighbour, Hollies owner had a minor heart problem, 3 weeks ago he had a operation which was successful I am pleased to report, he now takes Holly a walk late at night but still let's me take her for the 2pm walk, this morning and tomorrow it will again be in the morning, I wish you and your family a very Happy New Year for 2021, I see that you may run a marathon sometime next year.

I’m glad your neighbour is on the mend Al. He and Holly are lucky to have you. 🥰

As for me running a marathon next year ..... hmmm no, that’s highly unlikely! I’ll enter the London ballot again and deal with the training if the time comes, but truly I find HM plenty far enough for me!

Happy 2021 to you! 😀

Ah beautiful photograph, thank you for sharing. You must get so much enjoyment from walking her. Wow lots of snow

AlMorrAmbassadorGraduate in reply to 9weeks2Run

She is a lovely dog and guess what?, this morning just after I completed my 29th (not) parkrun I met Holly and her owner going for a short walk around the disused football pitch that I had just run on, her owner now takes her walks as his minor heart operation was successful a few weeks ago but still allowes me to take Holly a walk around 2pm.

Ah how lovely AlMorr Well done on completing your 29th (not) parkrun, that is brilliant.

So glad Holly’s dad’s operation was a success, how nice that you still get your time with Holly

Take care
