Must be, she was wearing a coat earlier. But she also went swimming as well

We must be nuts but thanks so much everybody who turned up and to those that helped it was a godsend. It was a really nice, if not slightly chilly weekend.
Great to see some new faces/usual suspects and also be able to put faces to names finally. Hope everyone gets home ok. It's not the weather it's who you're with and you couldn't find a nicer bunch of tough northerners to be snowed in with.
Fire's lit now, hot chocolate and the dog's defrosting, bliss

Hope to see you again soon, love to Ian and Marianne x

I'm reminded of that immortal line of Brian Hanrahon's, reporting from the deck of a Harrier carrier in the Falkands War. Confined by the demand for secrecy, he said:
" I'm not allowed to say how many planes joined the raid, but I counted them all out, and I counted them all back. Their pilots were unhurt, cheerful and jubilant, giving thumbs up signs."
Welcome home, you brave souls. For the rest, and from the history of this event, I'd say beware the ides of March. Maybe, each leap year, we should swap southern softies summer slot with tough northerners, so these courageous and deserving veterans can take a break, and visitors can enjoy the great beauty of the north in warmer weather.

That's because you didn't have a functioning heater
