Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

I've put some pictures on http://imgbb.com - it seems to work quickly and easily, gives a full image address on upload and works fine? I haven't tried to find photos after they've been up a while, and didn't notice any filing options, then again I haven't looked.

Edited to add: I just snuck off for a quick look - I've stuck up a few random shots as a guest, there's the option to sign up for an account so I guess all the options ould be there?)

If it's just for posting to the forum, as a super/mega-snowHead, you can upload them directly with a post => see the Blue Button.

It's tantalizing isn't it! There's snow in the air now but most of it seems to be drifting sideways and not coming down particularly fast.
I'm never normally able to ski in London as, when it snows, I'm inevitably away skiing - obviously it's not worth staying home just in case so the one year I'm being forced to, it would be nice to 'tick off' Primrose and Parliament hills snowHead

Its been slowly drifiting down in S.London though most of the day too. Unfortunately, the grounds got so wet, my local sliding spot has a substantial lake at the foot of it so run-out could be a bit... summery. There was a photo of someone kayaking in it on Saturday.

Yes. I live right at the bottom of Parliament Hill. In 2010 I skied from the Kenwood House car park to the bottom of Parliament Hill. It had to be done. The paths were best (ie fastest) because the grass stuck up while the path snow had been trampled into a piste.
Never skied Primrose Hill. Which is better, or haven't you yet skied either? Still hoping the current slight fall will build up overnight...

@snowball, I've never skied either as I'm always away when they 'come into condition' but I'd assume Parliament to be better as it's far longer. But Primrose is just round the corner from me so it's got to be done!

DONT GET EXCITED, this was Parliament Hill 11 YEARS AGO

This may be the day I skied it. The day before (at the weekend) it had been dense with tobogganers, but I didn't think to take my camera. There was a TV camera crew, so I rushed home and got my skis to be on TV, but they had gone when I got back.

Yes, we're finding that even very short grass has long bits(!) - so needs a lot more cover than roads and paths wink

Fresh tracks at our local old quarry today - it was like the Vail Back Bowls... wink

We eventually skied the snow off in parts, down to the frozen soil underneath - but had an enjoyable ski.





Hoping for more snow & a repeat run tomorrow Very Happy

I took a hike up my local hill before sunrise this morning. East Lomond in Fife, a bit scoured at the top but an awesome ski back down to Falkland in deep snow, even in the trees Very Happy

Falkland's a lovely place that we discovered on a very frosty gorge walk a year ago. Forgot the name of the gorge - great walk though.
