Last time it snowed properly in Oxford (2-3 years ago?) A group of ~10 of us built the sort of snowman I neveer quite managed to build as a child (about 5 ft tall, we started rolling his body about 500 metres down the road) I'll admit it was good fun, but it didn't last very long, until I had to leave and go home pretty much.
I think it's the fact that I'm not allowed to opt out of it and it makes various daily things that much more difficult/dangerous to accomplish.
Whilst happy to take the humbug I'll pass on the visits by the ghosts of snowfall past, present and future if you don't mind.
