The only 'Plows' they have anywhere near London actually own this website Diana! I guess you mean't 'ploughs' as in 'We plough the fields and scatter' eh? Ha, ha! |

At least, I do! Plough is no doubt the proper spelling though. Do you suppose Joan Plowright changed the spelling of her name for professional reasons from 'Ploughright'? |

It didn't look that bad in London at all to me on the news! We had a good snowfall so I have been outside playing with the boys as school was cancelled! |
