Springfield Park:

The snowmen weren't quite as inventive as the 2009 crop, but I liked this Caesar one:

Other people were more enterprising (this is where we'll be living once the first Tory term is over):

Most people were sledging (Stokey parents having brought along their FSC-certified traditional wooden sleds).

There was a lovely frost-fair festive atmosphere. We went home, noting that the grit Hackney council spread yesterday was a colossal waste of effort, admired the snowman the children had made in the estate playground (before they kicked it to death), and drank some Spanish style hot chocolate.
