Snowman

In common with much of the rest of Britain, today Pudsey disappeared under a thick blanket of snow.

And if the overnight forecast is to be believed, local residents will be waking up tomorrow under several winter duvets' worth.

Whilst Jamie had seen a bit of snow in his short life so far, he hadn't previously experienced proper snow.

So, doing her motherly duty, this afternoon Vanessa put him into his giant snow suit - so called because he'll need to grow into a giant before it actually fits him - and set him in the garden.

And, from what she told me, he simply sat there for a few minutes, took it in as best he could and even flickered an odd smile.

Then he got bored, started crying and had to come back in.

Perhaps tomorrow I'll ask Vanessa to make things a bit more interesting and find out if he can ski.
