Cheers. (It was mostly inspired by your snapshots of Alaska, although me being me I am incapable of saying anything much in less than five times that word length). Wish I could figure out what happy accident made my shitty point-and-click camera focus so crisply in the first two shots.
And yeah, I'm sure if I spent a couple of years in Alaska then snow would quickly become a whole load of No Fun At All. But this is the second year now that a mild dusting of snow in London has been followed by panic-buying of food (there's corner shops every hundred yards, for feck's sake!) and mass hysteria because OMFG WE CAN'T GET TO WORK, as if that was the most important thing in creation. Remote Highland communities (http://www.morningstaronline.co.uk/index.php/news/content/view/full/85079) and those likely to break brittle bones on the ice can complain; the rest of yez stop whingeing, for feck's sake, and go build a snowman or something.
Which, since last night's pessimism was unfounded and the snow is still merrily coming down, I am now about to go and do. Hooray!
