[Miscellaneous] Snow! Bigger and better than before...
Today has been a good day. Not only did we get another heavy snowfall, but it lasted all morning and was that wonderful snow that makes great snowballs. You know, the kind that's all large flakes, sticks together nicely, and looks really pretty when it settles.
I woke up late thanks to my over-optimistic observing sleep-pattern (I don't know why I was still hopeful that I'd get any observing done this week, and it was snowing heavily. More excitingly, it was settling! It didn't stop snowing until about 1 o'clock, at which point everything had a lovely layer of snow all over it.
So after our usual Friday lunchtime pub trip we stopped in the gardens above the Physics department to make a snowman, and have a snowball fight. It was glorious. Best day I've had at work in a long time.
Oh, and I handed in my first draft thesis chapter to my supervisor's pigeonhole before I left the office. Which is another reason to be happy I suppose.

This was the view from my bedroom window when I woke up about at about 10:00.
It only got better from there. (Credit: David Brown)
