Well, it seems I am a whingey-whiney chap. Today, New York City has had snow flurries and - 10 degrees windchill and in Berlin, several inches of snow and between -3 and - 10! It is positively Summer here in the UK compared to that ... BUT we are expecting more/worse from tomorrow. BUT I have snowchains, tyre socks and cans of deicer to hand ... I will remain mobile!

Tried Xmas shopping today ... returned with very little ... I feel most uninspired this year ... will everyone be content with an extra-large box of Smarties each (I guess no ... except for darling Moo of course ... )?

yum!
