Right now we are having a real snow storm as the Beast From The East causes chaos across the UK. So let’s play snow bingo, how many of these things will you spot today...

1. Snowmen and/or snow-women

"Do you want to build a SNOWMAN?" Yes we do. And yes we will. You're never too old.

2. People panic buying supplies

It's a bit of snow not Armageddon yet the shelves of supermarkets are stripped.

3. The person determined to dig their car out

No matter how snowy it gets, this person has decided they want to clear their car.

4. Sledging!

Approach with caution for this one, but you'll see kids (and adults) whizzing down the hill or little ones getting dragged around the streets on a sledge.

5. The parents with a pram

Anyone facing snow and hills with a pram is going to have some serious arm muscles after this.

6. The skiers and boarders

They put on their gear, grab their equipment and build kickers. Those in certain parts of the UK are even lucky enough to have real slopes to go on!

7. The inappropriately dressed

You know the ones who didn't get the memo it was going to be freezing and wet?

8. Snowball fight

Your competitive side will come out as you take on friends and family. Play nice kids.

9. Snow angels

It's too tempting to jump in and make snow angels, just try avoid the slushy snow!

10. Dogs having fun!

Our furry friends are loving the snow even more than we are!
