If you haven't noticed.: IT IS SNOWING.

Your challange today is to build a snowman and postpixplsthks.

Maybe you've got a snowday.

Maybe you made it before work.

Maybe it's just a littlun.

Maybe you made it after work.

Maybe you are a lazy student or unemployed.

Maybe you've made it on your lunchbreak.

Either way.

1) Make snowman.

2) Post pix.

GO!

Sexist.

I'm going to make a SnowPERSON as I'm going to have a non gender specific day.

Hu-man.
Snow-man.

We are made of Hu.
They are made of Snow.

Also: Extra points for Calvin&Hobbes-esque work.

While there's the most amount of snow here for a very long time, there's still some grass poking above the top of the snow which implies to me it's still not deep enough. Still, I'll do what I can.

If I took every scrap of snow between Cwmbran and Cardiff, I'd still struggle to make a snowman visible without a microscope.

I have great pictures coming.

If no one else here makes a snowman well then you are all old curmudgeons.

The dead one appears to have dog poo for a nose.

He must smell terribly.

THREE SNOWMEN WERE MADE TO YOUR AWFUL NONE.

FIRST: Icicle Bob.
A small snowman with icicle mohican and icicle penis.

SECOND: Wavey Dave
A small snowman we left on the steps of a random house - you can't see but the arm twigs looks just like he is waving. He's going to say hello to whoever leaves the house!

I can't tell if that's his nose or a cigar.

I reckon Wavey Dave is going to kill the partially sighted OAP who lives in that house.

Is Captain Snowsome wearing everything that brought with you? And has copped off with yer chick?

secondly: Don't worry we put glue in the locks first :attitude:

Why do people put scarves on snowmen?
Its not as if they need them

Zardoz · **Posted:** Mon Feb 02, 2009 17:50

To give Welsh Choirboys something to hang onto.

Shin and I have just been out to do this:

MEOW.

That last picture is frankly terrifying.

Joans · **Joined:** 31st Mar, 2008 **Posts:** 8655

Try to imagine that all 3 photos were taken from the same place.
In the last one it has seen you and now there is nothing you can do. :'(

Aw, he just wants to hug you. Forever.

Haha - the gloves are a nice touch.

Curiosity · **Posted:** Mon Feb 02, 2009 22:38

The cat isn't terrifying...

GIANT SNOW BUNNY IS GOING TO EAT YOU!!!

Even if you can't see him properly because it's dark

He just wants to be your friend!

Donnie Darko, eat your heart out.

I like the 'classic' style rounding at the base.

I love Sammy, he is sooo happy :luv:

Sammy has faced the thaw bravely and is still going 'strong'

I'm prepared to admit that Sammy now looks like a character from a cheap straight-to-DVD horror, but we still loves him.

Edit: One of his eyes has fallen out. Creepy!

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Feb 03, 2009 19:29

His hats melted!

4thDimension · **Joined:** 11th Dec, 2008 **Posts:** 332

no, we removed the hat and scarf. Him being made of snow, I figured he didn't need warming up

Shin · **Posted:** Tue Feb 03, 2009 19:38

Reminds me of Jack Skellington from Nightmare before Christmas

God I love that film

Amazing work here.

Frankly amazing.

I feel like an underachiever now. But without enough snow to put it right.

You could use cotton wool, and hope we don't notice.

Or if you don't have a frost free freezer - loads of snow!
