While blizzard conditions brought travel disruption and multiple closures across the Highlands, Ross-shire care home residents didn't let the frosty weather freeze their spirits.
At Innis Mhor in Tain, residents and staff, and some of their children, showed true ‘snow’ manship as they braved the chill for some spirited sledging and snowball fights.
