As the snow started to fall in the back garden.10:56:13
Erika out in the back garden enjoying the snow.10:56:18
10:56:24
10:56:40
Nice covering on the planter thing already.10:56:44
The bay tree and olive tree looking festive.10:58:09
11:04:31
11:04:39
11:04:45
11:15:03
Erika making a tiny snowman on the table.11:25:56

13:35:25
Heading out into the neighbourhood to see how much snow had settled.13:35:29
13:44:27
In our nearby churchyard we set about building a little snowman.14:00:19
There he is. Face looks a bit weird but then they always do. It was a nice group effort.14:00:35
Erika and our snowman.14:02:28
14:02:31
14:24:56
The girls went inside after a bit but I decided to head to the heath to see what the snow was like there.14:26:53
14:30:16
14:36:00
Lovely on the heath with a dusting of snow!14:36:45
The bandstand in the snow.14:37:13
14:37:29
Lots of people had made snowmen.
14:37:41
14:38:19
14:38:46
The slopes of Parliament Hill covered in snow.14:38:47
14:39:35
A very leafy snowman.14:40:57
Lots of people atop Parliament Hill.14:41:02
Some more impressive snowmen.14:43:03
14:43:09
Lots of people out sledging.14:43:28
A photographer presumably here to take photos of the crowds and provoke outrage on Twitter.14:44:39
14:44:43
14:45:42
The wooded bit looking lovely in the snow.14:45:47
14:45:49
14:46:44
The barrow amidst the snow.
14:47:08
14:47:53
Lovely.14:49:47
I sat here for some time enjoying the scenery. Surprisingly didn't feel particularly cold.14:52:38
14:56:07
15:00:07
15:15:55
15:18:35
15:22:25
15:35:25
15:51:16
The sky cleared ever so slightly for a while so I could also see some hint of the sunset.15:55:12
15:55:19
15:57:24
Nice glimpses of pink clouds above the snow.16:01:31
16:09:16
16:37:33
I suddenly felt like making my own snowman. The snow was a bit muddy here but here is the result.16:37:43
I liked to think of it more of a snow druid, given the location next to the barrow.16:39:16
Snow druid by the barrow.16:41:26
16:41:35
16:43:14
Me and snow druid.16:43:46
16:44:38
16:51:25
Somebody skiing!16:51:35
16:54:38
16:56:58
16:56:59
16:58:01
16:59:35
17:00:35
I left for a bit to answer a call of nature, thus these parting shots.
17:01:48
17:03:12
Highgate in the distance.17:06:30
17:07:42
17:07:44
The snowy woods.17:08:24
17:16:22
Went back again to adorn the snow druid with a sort of head dress of holly, albeit a bit difficult to see here.17:16:33
17:16:47
Ultimately I used the flash because you couldn't see the holly otherwise.17:17:33
17:19:11
Finally leaving the barrow now.17:20:45
Very nice walking back through the woods in the gloaming, and still surprisingly not so cold.
17:21:48
17:23:11
Probably the tweed cap made all the difference.17:28:17
The London skyline as I was leaving.17:30:30
