Is there anything more wonderful than waking up in a warm bed to a world wrapped in a coating of snow? Certainly nothing man-made is as beautiful as a snow flake nor has the power to conjure memories of imagined idyllic winters past, Calvin & Hobbes comic strips and black and white Christmas movies.
Before Rachel went to work this morning we walked (slowly) up the hill to the doctors' to collect my monthly prescription - for all the blood pressure pills I have to take every day; then I hiked down into town (after a rest stop back at the flat) to get the drugs from Boots The Chemist. Unfortunately, by then the main roads had cleared and the snow that was still falling was turning to water the moment it hit tarmac.
However round the sideroads it's still looking quite seasonal, the sky is grey and the weather forecast is for the temperature to drop and everything to freeze later on - which could well put an end to my planned visit to Nick's this evening; which would be a shame as I haven't seen him and Matt since my birthday (and their Christmas presents are still stacked up next to the TV in my sitting room!)
