hamster Posted 6 January, 2010 Share Posted 6 January, 2010 Hi, just to allay any suspicions that I was skiving today, here is the evidence: Snowman of The Year Winner 2010. No apologies for the Gills scarf, it's my Grandson's. Note: Said snowman can be viewed in the car park of The Alma, Lower Upham. The finishing touch And finally 'The Hill', better known as the Rose Bowl car park. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hamster Posted 6 January, 2010 Author Share Posted 6 January, 2010 This is what you're up against! I really do not know what to say, that is quite brilliant, well done. I like it and you should have it as your avataar until he dies/melts imho. ..however what kind of snowman wears gloves ffs? And I suspect that a grown up had a hand in making that.

Arizona Posted 6 January, 2010 Share Posted 6 January, 2010 You have to wonder about the mental capacity of some people if their idea of being hard and/or funny is to knock over a pile of snow.

John Boy Saint Posted 7 January, 2010 Share Posted 7 January, 2010 I made a snowlady with bewbs and everything, only for the little sh*t across the road to smash it to bits with a spade. This country... I spent the whole afternoon on Sandbanks Beach once creating a masterpiece of a Sandcastle, took bloomin hours. While it was under construction passing people were stopping to look and comment. Half an hour after completion a family came along with a couple of lads under 10 and sat a few yards away, within minutes they had come over and smashed it to bits as I sat with my feet in my "moat". A Dad and his child built a real monster of a Snowman in the field near us, must have been 8-9 ft tall, within the hour after construction it was mush on the floor.................... As you say "This Country" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ponty Posted 8 January, 2010 Share Posted 8 January, 2010 Resize it? I can't even see it. Anyway, I can't believe some of you are getting so precious about "chavs" knocking down snowmen. It's hardly a new phenomenon, is it? Kids have been knocking over snowmen for decades, probably centuries. They're kids. It's what they do. It's what they've always done. Some of you sound like you would've fit right in in the 50s and 60s when the devil was taking our teenagers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry Ponty: having grown up from the age of 5 in the wilds of North Hampshire in Village where I lived every Kid in the school could build a snowman on the village green and they would be untouched by anyone else, the competition was to see who's Snowman lasted the longest: it went down to the last spec of snow on the grass.

Being kids doesn't automatically mean that they have to be distructive. That is learned behaviour. If kids are taught to build things, and a very good example is a snowman, then they realise that the fun isn't in the destruction of something, but the creation. When I was a kid, we never knocked down snowmen. Mind you, in Southampton, one hardly ever got the chance to practice anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
