I have to say that I am somewhat jealous of those lucky people on holiday in sunny climates

The grass is always greener Hyram - my daughter's rueing the fact we didn't go home this Xmas (instead of last), as she could have been building snowmen now!

But she would have cold hands and wet feet. Nasty stuff snow.

Yes, but she needs to experience the numbing discomfort herself though! Having lived a tropical childhood she's only seen snow on TV!

I tell a lie, we were snowed in at Amman airport on the way back to Addis once. I kid you not. Though we weren't allowed to go outside and play in it!

I had a friend at school from Australia who had never seen snow until his first winter. He liked it. But he was after all Australian.

Well it's gone 6 - I'd say David has his work cut out. In his shoes I think I would be looking long and hard at how the subject is met!

You're right Mike, I do have my work cut out. Three late entries have come in while I was having my tea. Apart from these the comments are all prepared, now I've just got to go through the new entries, make a final decision and then you'll see the results. I need a short while longer.
David.

Early tea? That's dedication.

Not as bad as late entries in the Weekly Competition

Hi Mike,

It's a bit like being partial to warm beer isn't it?
