Judging by Neil's pictures you had a good time!

Now that was a good party... :geek:

Don't suppose many of you out there have seen Charitomenos in winter mode, blazing log fire and all :twisted:

(she said, rubbing it in!)

Don't rub too much or we will be coming all of us and there be no place for you when you are coming late from work

By the way when I was driving home an hour ago it was 13 on the car temp, and you just have 9

It has been a very strange winter so far, and not just in Symi either if fuchsias are flowering in Sweet Sue's garden...

10 January and still not a cyclamen flower to be seen. Still no snow on the Turkish mountains opposite. :?:

And I'm still picking fresh coriander leaves in the garden which is entirely unprecedented.

And we have still roses and my thyme and parsley in pots are fine

The Fuschia and Kalanchoe in a planter by my front door are still in flower and the tree in my back garden has started to come into leaf only 6 weeks after it lost them! :?:

It's weird here too. Today is grey and drizzling and in the high teens and has been so for a couple of days. :cry:

Unheard of for january, but they are tipping 40s for the weekend.
I was talking to Marianne from Stockholm on sunday and not a snowflake in sight. She had been mushrooming!! When I was there at Xmas in '87 snow was over a metre deep and bloody freezing.
I'm not a greenie but I wonder if this erratic weather is due to excessive culling of our global forests? The Good Lord only knows what it will be like in 50 years...luckily I won't be around to find out.
