Inspector Morse

On ITV3 they are holding a John Thaw weekend so I’m glued to the box.  I loved Inspector Morse, both the books and the programme.

I will admit that I cried when Inspector Morse died – I remember it very clearly – sitting up in bed ’til the late, lamp on, no music.  I was given the book for Christmas.  In saying I cried when he died it might also have been that I was still a bit upset as my Grandad had died just over a month before.

There is one other thing I love about the Inspector Morse series and that was the soundtrack – written by Barrington Pheloung.  There are parts of the music when is soars and it almost feels as if you heart wants to fly with it – it’s just so beautiful.

So here is the thing that makes me smile particularly 2min 43sec:

Snow!

We’re not getting snow here this year – it’s way too mild.  Mind you it’s not very often that we do get snow so I shouldn’t be that surprised (still disappointed though).  However, there is a very cold spell happening over in Europe and Russia.  I know that snow has it’s draw backs and dangers but it is so beautiful.  Below are 2 pages of wonderful snow photos (hopefully the url will remain live as time goes on)
