... have obviously gone on holiday.
I have no idea where they are or what they are doing, but they have most certainly forgotten what they are supposed to be doing.

If you take a look at the entry below, you will see that it was written a month ago.
The picture included depicts a sunny landscape.
Here are two new pictures for you. They were taken here in the village I live in and they were photographed yesterday.
The weather hasn't altered during the whole four weeks except, that is, to get warmer.





If you look carefully, you will notice that the people depicted in both pictures above are not wearing jackets - in fact most people were in short sleeves yesterday - getting their first sunburn of the year.

Now, I don't like to complain, but we are supposedly in the middle of winter.
We are supposed to have a meter of snow.
And I know darned well that if the weather gods keep mucking around like this, they are going to throw a meter-and-a-half of snow at us at the end of April - when we're supposed to have started spring!

I'm not sure I'm too keen on the idea ...
