Welcome to Winter

Amidst everyone crashing their cars on frozen roads (I wonder why?), trains stuck in tunnels and runways buried in snow, the one ray of sunshine is that the longest night has now passed. So it's either the start of winter, mid winter, or as far from the sun as our poor little planet will be for another year. Now we can all relax by spending the next few days, preparing, cooking, drinking and generally getting stressed with family. I can't wait! :-)
