" I looked out and saw lots of snow fluffies."

it took me over 2 hours to realise I meant flurries!

Here in Derbyshire Sandra, after experiencing 2 feet of snow and up to 20ft snow drifts with all the wind, we also have a new word for snow ;-) xx

I actually like the word "fluffies" Sandra! When snowflakes come down they actually do look fluffy! :-)
