Stay inside girls, break out the cookie sheets and enjoy the view with a hot cuppa. Hope your power stays on and that you enjoy the white Christmas atmosphere.

See, you learn something new every day on POE don't you? Thank you Urmimala and Kahu. Weather here today..........not nice! Snow, ice, no salt on the roads, police towing your car away and then charging you, cold, more snow, more ice, more frost! Time to take a holiday, but hang on a minute which airport is open? Ah, perhaps we shall stay at home after all! |
