It is pristine and fresh now, but in a few days time I know I will have had enough of it. At the moment we cannot get our car out of the drive, and our road is compacted and icy. Fortunately H is a very good walker. He is happy to trek through the snow and down the hills into the valley to replenish our stores if necessary.Rosemaryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03814070177137076757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7046286238110595318.post-44312822660434301422013-01-20T21:57:41.521+00:002013-01-20T21:57:41.521+00:00Dear Jim - that is interesting - H said it was his...Dear Jim - that is interesting - H said it was his least favourite one, but I decided to leave it in anyway.
