Snow!

[lnr]

We were woken this morning by a burglar alarm going off around 8:30am. When it eventually stopped at nearly 9 Mike got up and opened the blinds, to find it was not only snowing but that it had been doing so for some time and had settled. We got up and dressed and wrapped up warm in record time, and decided it was time to take our recycling to ASDA as an excuse to go out for a walk in the snow. On the walk over we drew a picture on the front of a car and Mike tried waltzing in the street to see what the footprints would look like, then once we'd posted all our tetrapacks in the bin we made a snowman in the carpark. We walked home through the cemetery. On the streets it was all beginning to melt, but it was still lovely here. Click through for more photos. Can you spot what's odd about the two photos of the snowman?

The snowman is either in two different places, or is two very similar-looking but distinct snowmen?

[lnr]

Right first time, though you've not got everything...

Looks like he's moved a few meters to his left (or the photographer's right) in the shot with you in.

(Also he's changed his hat and redone his scarf.)

There's still one more difference. But it's a bit more subtle.

Haven't any of you seen the walking lamp posts in the Chavton Centre car park before?

[lnr]

And the plants got up and walked away too?

What *are* that snowman's eyes made of? The picture of the snow-covered blossoms is lovely.

2p coins?

[lnr]

Lucy's right, they're 2ps and the nose is a 1p.

[lnr]

Yup.

*laugh* Definitely my favourite answer.

I think your snowman is mounted on some sort of wheeled contrivance.

(S)

[lnr]

Wheels would have been great, since then we could have taken him home!

I wonder how much of him (if any) is left now. The last of the snow is now gone from the shed roof.

There's something odd going on with the size/shape of the snowman's body, and at least his head has been tilted during the move.

Of course, up in the Brecon Beacons, we didn't get any snow.

[lnr]

Yup, you're right, his head's on at a slightly different angle in the second photo, and he probably did pick up a little extra body in the move too.
