Snow is formed when temperatures are low and there is moisture, tiny ice crystals, in the atmosphere. When tiny ice crystals collide they stick together in clouds to become snowflakes. Should enough ice crystals stick together then they will become heavy enough to fall to the ground. When does snow fall? When precipitation falls as snow the air temperature is below 2oC. In Great Britain, the heaviest snow falls have a tendency to occur when the air temperature is be- tween zero and 2oC. Snowflakes are the collections of ice crystals that group together and can occur in countless shapes and forms, for example prisms, hexagonal plates or stars. Every snowflake is unique, but be- cause they join togeth- er in a hexagonal structure they always have six sides. The size and make up of a snowflake is dependant on many ice crystals group together and determined by air temperature. At warmer temperatures, the snowflakes will melt around the edges and stick together to become big heavy flakes, creating “wet” snow which sticks together easily and is great for making snow men. When snowflakes fall through dry, cool air the snowflakes will be small and powdery that do not stick to- gether. This “dry” snow is ideal for snow sports. UK snow facts… According to the Met Office, the UK gets on average 33 days of snow fall or sleet a year (1971-2000). The majority of this is snow which falls on higher ground where temperatures are cooler. In Scotland, the figure is much higher, with snow or sleet falling on average 52 days. The Met Office reports statistically the snowiest place in Great Britain is Banffshire in Scotland, with on average, 63.8 days of snow or sleet falling. The least likely place to get snow is Cornwall, an average of only 10.2 days of snow or sleet falling a year. Energy saving ... Lighting Tips: Use energy efficient lightbulbs Use “natural” daylight whenever possible. Turn off the bulbs and pull back the blinds. En- sure windows are clean Get staff involved by running a “Switch Off” campaign Turn off lights in any room that isn’t in use—and remind staff to do the same Fit presence detector lighting controls that are not inconstant use, ie toilets Be aware of over lighting.

  • The History of Staffordshire Bull Terriers
    “This article is the first in a series to be published in The Stafford on breed history to mark the 60th anniversary of Kennel Club recognition in 1995. It mainly concentrates on the modern era, but not exclusively. The article first appeared in the Kennel Gazette in October 1987 and was part of a history of Southern Counties SBT Society.” The Stafford Knot has made every reasonable effort to contact the copyright holder of this article. The author, A.W.A. Cairns is deceased. We have been unable to contact next of kin. Although in the context of Kennel Club recognition the Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a relatively 'new breed', on the basis of the many drawings available, a Stafford-like animal existed at the turn of the 19th Century. A classic example is "Crib and Rosa", a painting by Abraham Cooper, circa 1816. For almost seventy years "Rosa" was taken as the model bulldog, but the modern bulldog bears little resemblance to her. Allowing for a slight prejudice, the only modern dog of this type is the Staffordshire Bull Terrier. An engraving of "Crib and Rosa" by Scott bears the caption - "Engraved by John Scott. Published in 1817". "Rosa" was by the Honourable Berkeley-Cravens "Old Bowler" out of Bowlems tulip-eared bitch, by Paddington Jones' "Hoppy" out of the famous Staffordshire bitch. "Crib" was got by Mrs Halls "Nimble" out of "Rosa". It is not suggested That the 'famous Staffordshire bitch' was a Staffordshire Bull Terrier, but it could be concluded that animals of that type, existed in that county before 1816.
