Just as we'd all given up on snow and started pulling the spring clothes out, winter decided to show it's icy face in this lovely little area of the world. So we've gone from the warmest january on record to the first white easter weekend!
I don't know how to begin to describe the amazing weather we've been having this week! Monday daytime gave us a horizontal display of snowstorm, by night it had settled down to those pretty big fat snowflakes. Then since tuesday we've been having clear, brilliant blue skies through the day and snow at night. The forecast for the next few days shows the same sort of conditions with temps of +1, +1, -2, -1. Whoop-dee-doo! Today is a grey day and I've just popped the fridge thermometer outside, so we'll see what the temp is in a minute.

Yes, of course I'm missing everyone very much, and I can't wait to have some visitors!! Oh and we're planning to hopefully visit Australia maybe the first half of next year, so that'll be great! (psh - let's see if I can get a job!)
The sun's just come out and it's a grand +2 degrees.

Next morningTiny little icicles! oh... and some sort of green muck under the rails on our balcony.
