Snooooooooooooooow. No, unfortunately the flurry of snow seen in parts of the country on Sunday was all we're seeing for the moment, but over in Seattle, Washington USA, they have so much of the stuff, they were able to set the Guinness World Record for the world's largest snowball fight and raise money for charity in the process. Saturday the 12th saw over 5,000 Seattleites turn out in the shadow of the Space Needle to pelt each other with the white stuff. Apart from the honkitronic music in the background, it looks like a ridiculous amount of fun.

See this is what should happen when it snows here. Not the ridiculous hoopla where everything shuts down and we're all reduced to grumbling about the snow ruining everything (Irish people grumbling about the weather? Never.) Because this looks like so much fun.
