I was chatting on the phone yesterday and commenting that it was snowing earlier that morning -

" 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! :-)

I won't tell you the 'word' we, at Headway, had for 'snow' this morning!! It wouldn't be polite! Basically everyone is getting a bit p...ed off with it! I do like the word, mind you, quite funny really!
