No business like snow business…

Button-Linguard throws down the snowman challenge.

Earlier today, we asked readers to send us their photos showing demolition sites at work in or halted by the snow that has brought much of Europe to a standstill.

However, Button-Linguard managing director Roy Gibbons has just thrown down a new snow-related challenge.

With their site at a standstill, Roy and his team have spent their day creating two first class snowmen (pictured below). But, having appointed Demolition News as arbiters of all things cold and white, Roy has said that he will donate £50 to the Cancer Research charity if anyone can beat his team’s snow-sculpting skills.

UPDATE: We have just heard from “GoldenGirls” that they will match Roy Gibbons’ generous offer for a photo of the biggest snowman “to prove, once and for all, that size really does matter”.

So please send your photos via email to manthony@markanthonypublicity.co.uk or via text on (UK) 7973 465166 before judging takes place on Friday this week.

And just so you know what you have to beat, here are the two snowmen with which Button-Linguard has set the benchmark:
