Currently snowed in - the guest room has been made up for me but I don't
feel like sleeping.

How quick does a splash of bourbon evaporate from a hot coffee?

The news reports claim that the snow storms have hit as far as Spain (which
is apparently very unusual) its still snowing when I just looked out and
doesn't look like getting any better by the new day!

The tobacco man is due back from the continent on Friday and his route
across SE England is even worse hit than here, With only 1/4 pouch left its
going to be difficult to get back and find out whether he made it back.

After a long struggle I got the motorcycle up the drive and across the
footpath (sidewalk) but got bogged down before I made it to the ruts made by
the cars, once everyone's up tomorrow I can scrounge a spade to dig the bike
out and get to the ruts.
