We went to the Highlander Cafe for coffee and a scone. Had a neat conversation with Colin McPherson, the owner. Listening to him talk with his Scottish accent was well worth the price! Of course I'm more sure now that our Great Countries are separated by a "Common Language.....

Me? It's been below zero degrees(F) for about a week now(during the day!), and we've had snow on the ground since late October.

I could use a couple of weeks in Tahiti right about now!

Was in Japan last February - had heavy snow and great powder skiing!

To all and sundry, what is the skiing like in you're local area at the moment? Holidays in February beckon!

I need variable seasons. I like the warm, I like the snow, I love the rain but I can't have too much of either - I need change!

And it does make me homesick. I'd love to come back to Scotland, but the wife wants to live down here by her family.

I've told her though...when I retire, I'm going to live in Scotland...she's welcome to join me

Do these things still exist? I thought they suffered extinction due to Global Warming...

I don't know where you mean?
If you mean where the little wooden wall is on the right? Then it's an area where we have our Guinea pigs housed. We have a double level hutch for our two Guinea Pigs, but we've moved the hutch into the shed just now...so this area is empty for the time being. We just put the little wall up to give them an exclusive area...we actually remove one off the bricks that sit under the wooden wall so they can get out into the garden in the spring and summer...better than a lawnmower (if you have enough of them!)
