Once up on a time there were winters in England, and Sheffield used to get snow (and we've had some again - on 18th November 2004, and some in February 2005).
Here are some snowmen from previous years - dates unknown, but before digital cameras were around; and some from the digital camera from Xmas 2004 and more recently.

The new building behind has the same effect on me.

3. The Mayor. It was supposed to look like Ted Heath, but ended up more like Boris Yeltsin.The Mayor
4. Wallace. No Gromit, I'm sorry to say.Wallace and Gromit without Gromit
5. Christmas Day, 2004, 8.25 am, from our back door. The first White Christmas for many years. It really did look that colour!

6. February 2005. Snow thin and full of leaves and moss. Not quite an Easter Island statue.

7. Shortly before Xmas 2009 - we had a white-ish Christmas, and plenty of snow later, and shortly afterward we got molehills under the snow.
