School car park

As this is a photo-diary I thought that I would include a pic of the car park at work, a rural, Pennine village Middle School. The snow closed us down last week for a couple of days and has never melted away since. Its just so cold.
The kids have had fun playing outside and making igloo-like structures; they seem not to feel the freezing weather like us older mortals do! The drive down the valley in the morning is a treat too, hazy blue skies and snowy fields outlined by dark stone walls, trees in silhouette against the whiteness and sheep dotted everywhere. Its great.
