Well that will be that!  Another Christmas gone and the snow is here.  The main problem with snow at this point of the year is that it can hang around for a very long time.  We have not had such cold temperatures here before.  I thought that I had gone over the top with wrapping up the tree fern but now I am glad that I did.  I think I will add a little extra wrapping to it tomorrow.  The dog thinks this is just wonderful but I am now beginning to feel like a caged animal.  If I am not able to go and dig something soon I may well go loco.
