We met the snow . . .

. . . eventually. As we travelled north. London to Darlington by train (extremely efficient East Coast line!); picked up the car and drove over the A66 home. A quick turnround and off in the car north again.

And now we are in Edinburgh, staying with two very special blip friends. It's just one adventure after another!

(Guardian Readers - today's Country Matters refers to our village, the Helm Wind and the Rake Makers - all of whom I have blipped about at some stage or another.)
