Not really. Skiing isn't exactly popular in your neck of the woods. There are ski resorts in Australia. Yeah, water skiing. |

Marmots are adorable giant rats that live in the mountains and threaten cars. If you go to Sequoia National Park about 5 hours drive from here, they warn you to wrap your car in a tarp to avoid having the rubber pipes eaten by marmots. This is a photo on the official National Park website:  |

What'd mean silly sods - I was there.
It was extra - big yikes I was so snatched - but keep it low key.

No, one of my many children - I can't remember which, bought me half a case of Anciano Gran Reserva 2010 Tempranillo (Spanish) for my 70th.
It's rather lovely

It certainly seems to work.
Fair play.

On a beautiful Sunday - Me Lady Wife, her twin brother, his wife and I spent the day walking along the river from Windsor Bridge to Romley Lock, had a picnic in Great Park and then back through Windsor to the Long Walk and then sat on the benches outside the Castle before driving home. A delightful day.
