Hello everyone. Snowballs, snowmen, sledging and no school – that's what the snow meant for me. I hope you have enjoyed the snowy weather as much as I have.

I don't have a proper sledge but that didn't matter a bit. Instead I used a tin tea tray which took me flying down the hill. By the end of the day it was battered and bent, but it had given me a lot of fun. I don't think we'll be able to carry tea on it again.

The snow wasn't all fun, though. I had to work hard with mum and dad to clear our drive and make a path to the front door. I also made sure the birds had something to eat and drink. With the ground so frozen and covered in a white blanket they find it difficult to get the food they need.

Why not send me photographs or drawings of the fun you had in the snow? I love to see your pictures and will share them with everyone else here and on my web page.

Now, I have a new member to introduce to you all this week. Shay Frew, of Wells, is joining our club. Shay will be a year old in February and likes playing with big sister Sommer and cousins, playing with racing cars, and playing with a flashing bouncy ball.

Tomorrow, Samual Phipps, of Wells, will be two.

On Saturday, George Chant, of Glastonbury, will be six years old, Harry Robins, of Wells, will be 10 and Louis Baker, of Cheddar, will be 11.

On Sunday, Abi Kemish, of Shepton Mallet, will be three, Alice Berry, of Street, will be five, Rhianna Harris, of Wookey, will be 11, Harrison Leitch, of Street, will be 10 and Tamara Adams, of Peasedown St John, will be nine.

Monday is the fifth birthday of Samuel Foley, of Glastonbury, Alice Helps, of Baltonsborough, will be 10 and George Newman-Sharkey, of Wolverhampton, will be eight.

Wednesday is the fifth birthday of Martha McGrath, of Wells, Ellie Green, of Street, will be seven, Travis and Owen Coward, of Wells, will be eight and Lauren McDougall, of Street, will be 10.

A very happy birthday to all of you from me.
