And this is where a discussion about continental vs maritime climates can ensue. UK very much maritime and kept atypically warm (yes I mean warm) for the latitude by the Gulfstream.

Overnight -10c is not that unusual but its typically only for a day or two. It has hit -twenty something but thats quite rare in the southern UK.

A balmly 9c outside today though and beautiful blue skies.

Doesn't seem very much wrong with S1 but rules are rules and he's been his usual cute self - much better than the meetings I had booked today smile he's having his nap now so I'll see how that goes. Contemplating a nap myself though I probably should check my emails.

Hope you are all having very pleasant days (used loosely to cover all time zones)
