Thanks for the nice comments everyone.

It really is very odd that he didn't want to stay out in the snow because normally no matter what it is like outside he wants out. I think there may be two explanations.
One. Now he's getting older, like me, he prefers home comforts to the cold outdoors.
Two, the most likely. The snow he has experienced before has not been as deep and he is kind of wary of it. I think he'd be quite happy with it on a walk, which is, unfortunately, something we can't do, well, I can't, ergo he can't either.

Karen, where I live the snow had been reasonably light until we had this downfall which shows no sign of shifting. The problem earlier was the ice, the paths like glass, roads too, bar the main ones which have been kept gritted. Also living on hills/mountainside doesn't help, there is no way up here for vehicles without going up some hill or another. On Tuesday evening my dil had to walk a quarter of the way home because the bus wouldn't come any further. It's not so bad for drivers today though, at least on the well used roads, or so my veg delivery man tells me anyway.

Oh, well, hey ho, it'll end sometime.

To all non UK persons. Why can't the UK deal with snow?
