The Delights of Snow

  Put The Credit Crunch On Hold For Just A Moment… Nostalgia makes you feel all warm inside yet today’s outpouring from the gloomy Essex skies reminded me of how fractious our climate can be. Was it just a few weeks ago that I was lying in the garden, glass of chilled rose in one hand, lover in the other? Ah, yes, it was. Now the skylight is obscured by fallen hail, not melting, not drowning. I am lifted by the knowledge that old friends are in touch, new friends call and life is on the up.  However bad these times make you feel, just spare a thought for snowballs, shiny faces and frozen ponds.  Let the child out now and again. It was you then and it’s still you now…
