          There are good things about winter - e.g. wearing the jumpers, gloves, hats etc. I have knitted, having casseroles, hotpots etc. for dinner, seeing people's gardens through their winter-bare hedges ;), starry skies, empty beaches, good cloud formations, snuggling up in bed listening to a winter storm.....see?

                      It's going to take the extra hour we gain for me to get all my clocks altered. :)

                      7 in the house, 2 in the cars, 2 wrist watches and then a further 2 to be altered when I get the nod from my kids abroad. Those two clocks are set up for American and Canadian times. :)
