In that case, could you and Michelle please send some snow my way?  
Here in the southwest of England by the seaside snow is very rare 
indeed.  We had 2 days of slushy stuff this time last year, and I got 
some *very* strange looks from the neighbours as I threw the kids 
into their winter woolies and refused to let them anywhere near my 18-
inch snowman ("Sod off!  Mine!!").  Of course as a displaced Canadian 
I know how to dress for the cold, unlike most of the locals.  Yes, as 
much as I hated shovelling the driveway (if I waited long enough my 
brother would do it :) ) and treacherous driving conditions I still 
miss the white stuff.  I know...I'm mad.  But then you knew that 
already.
