    Default It's wintery here!

    Well the cold weather finally hit here in The Southern Netherlands......strong cold winds, wintery showers, ice , snow etc , so I have got the shopping in and am curling up in front of the fire to enjoy some good music and will not venture out much over the next few chilly days......

    Nice and warm here, in my office, about 25 degrees. A bit colder outside, pulled out my favourite Icelandic woolly jumper this morning.

    Was colder on my winter holiday a couple of weeks ago to the beach in Belgium - minus 3 but people we out building sandcastles. Long cycles along the coast, nether regions completely froze up. After the cycling we went for ice cream.

    Today couldn't be more 'January' really. Ominous overcast gloom and pretty chilly. The joys of British seasons.

    More of the same today. We're stuck with this until spring I reckon, That's 20th March.
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    The rain has finally stopped for the moment. That's over eight hours of it today. It'll be a bit squishy walking the dog tomorrow.

    Rain here too. That fine stuff that soaks you through. Misty too. Basically the clouds are at ground level.
