Meh.

My parents' DOOMSAYING!!!! newspaper has us in a new Ice Age by the end of the week.
Then again they have an anti-global-warming agenda supported by their ageing readership, who still need to wear cardigans all summer and therefore have proof it's all a tax fraud by two successive Governments.

Apparently there will be snow in Scotland. There's always snow in Scotald (sorry Limey)
And oop North. There's always snow there too (sorry Dana)
But snow in the safe and protected Vale of Aylesbury, where clever settlers settled because it was safe and protected by the surrounding hills? Nope. We get drizzle.

I am so ungrateful.
I need to move North, or work in a school where I have to break a path to the door every morning, and have the children huddle round the stove until they thaw out.
But Dakota is a long way away.
