The photos below were taken on 4th February, when 20+ of us walked from Dunstable to the Plough in Wingfield for our post Christmas meal. This was before the snow came and it was a glorious crisp bright day.
If you look carefully you can see the golf balls sitting on the surface of the ice at Wingfield golf club.
We stopped at Houghton Regis Church to enjoy refreshments before continuing our walk.
Others of the group just met us at the pub and about 35 of us had a meal there.
Although it doesn't look it, it was December and absolutely freezing not far from Cheddar, the group went there to see the starling murmuration and it was well worth it.The photos below were taken in February 2009.
This is the group arriving at Tanners Hatch Hostel. Cosy with log fire, but with outdoor ablutions!
This one of the views from the hostel. We weren't too sure whether this was weather for walking but we found lots of other people in shorts and t-shirts doing a sponsored run that morning!
An extreme example of cold walking, the ones above were taken on a group visit to Iceland back in 2005.
The ones below were taken on our traditional winter trip between Christmas and New Year these are in Shropshire.
This is All Stretton Bunkhouse. It came with mod cons including underfloor heating.
This is the Long Mynd. 
The three above were taken on another Christmas trip this time to Cumbria. However we have been there in April and had heavy snowfalls.
Nearer to home these were taken in the heavy snow in 2010
