Underwhelming snowmen: share your pictures

Snow fell on Britain over the weekend, settling on the ground for the first time this winter in some areas. While the snow tended not to be deep enough for sledging, attaching tennis rackets to your feet and hiking impressively to the next village, or total societal breakdown, there was at least enough to lead to the creation of slightly disappointing snowmen, according to reports.

Did you build a snowman this weekend? Did you spot a snowman on your travels? In either case, was the snowman a bit underwhelming?

If so, please share your photographs with us via GuardianWitness. We will put together a gallery of your least impressive efforts.

You can also tweet your disappointing snowmen in our general direction by using the hashtag #GuardianSnowman, should you so wish.

We look forward to seeing your men made of snow.
