A couple of days ago I complained that it was ¨way too green¨ for this time of year. Well, it seems like the weather gods took heed… this is what I woke up to today:

Not bad! We got about a foot of snow where we are on Christmas Eve/Christmas so it was perfect! Hope you had a lovely, relaxing holiday.

I’m actually jealous! It’s a green Christmas in Toronto, with record high temps. This is the one (only) time of year I want snow.

Beautiful photos! For us in Birmingham it snowed for about ten minutes and that was it. The north of the country is suffering though!

I can’t believe they aren’t any better equipped by now. The last 10(?) UK winters have been snowy, why can’t they get a grip and buy some bloody snow ploughs and get some salt on the roads???

As an African-born Australian, I don’t know how you live in these conditions. I’ve only experienced one European winter, a few days in Paris when it snowed a lot compared to the norm. Walking down the streets, whenever I passed a bar, it made me want to go inside and have a nice Pernod or maybe a red wine. I think a winter would play havoc with my waistline or my alcohol intake. On the other hand, here it is so hard to get into the Christmas spirit when it is so bloody hot and humid!
