| 27 February 2004 Let snowy Stratford melt your heart
 The garden of Shakespeare's New Place, with the Royal Shakespeare Theatre in the distance |  | Fall in love with Stratford, with our photographs showing the sprinkling of snow that brought out the romance of Warwickshire's most famous town. |
 | | With early spring flowers dusted with snow and swans cracking their way through the ice, Stratford was the picture of a winter wonderland in the snow.

We went along and braved the cold to photograph this jewel of Warwickshire in its glistening glory.
And we weren't alone - the sunshine has started the tourist trade early in the town.
The out-of-season tourists have struck lucky, as the magic of snow brought out the romantic and serene side of Stratford.
Who'd have thought February was such a great time for a visit?

Enjoying the snow

Snow can be a pain (remember the road chaos last time?!). But it can also mean days off school and really mad snowball fights!
How did you enjoy the snow this year?
It was a bit light this time, but did you find a way to make the most of it? Or did you enjoy it more last time?
Send us your stories to coventry@bbc.co.uk and we'll put them on the site here.
Your pictures

We think snow makes everything look really romantic and want to put more snowy pictures in our gallery.
If there's any snow left near you, get outside with your camera and take some photos of the winter wonderland.
Send them to us at coventry@bbc.co.uk and we'll put them in a gallery.
For inspiration, take a look at the gallery from the last snow storm, showing all your photographs.
The snow didn't hang around for long this time, but we're also happy to receive photographs from years gone by. Just send them in to warm our hearts!
