A Snowy Miscellany, Diss, Norfolk - 9th January 2010

There's some snow about and it manages to hang around for more than a day. For some reason, Nosher is awake at 7.30am and decides to head in to Diss, before the masses appear, to get some photos in relatively undisturbed snow. There's no-one about, apart from a bunch of paperboys and papergirls, setting out for their rounds. A few days before it snows, it's already freezing and the Mere has partly frozen over.
