Hmph. Our island snow is really quite pathetic - a light dusting, and that's all. Not fair!
Last night, though, was freezing - very cold, and with a fierce, freezing wind. I know this because I had to stand outside in it for two hours, occasionally forcing frozen feet to move into a dance, but mostly watching other sides dancing. The warm pub with its fruit wines was very welcome afterwards. At times like this, I have a fresh appreciation of what it must be like to be a heroic quester trudging through icy lands to slay the Dark Lord. Until magic invents centrally-heated boots, I think I'll stay out of Fantasyland, thank you very much.
