Temperature's rising Jan. 17, 2007

With the water rising and sadly the repetitive threat of terrorism in cities, Cumbria’s high spots remain a good choice of place to be.
It occurs to me (again and increasingly so) that the young generation, including my Ava, might never know in their lifetime a frosty blue-sky British winter… my favourite of many being that of 1985 into 1986, my first in the Lake District when it snowed and froze on December 27th and melted finally on March 8th.
We need to go to Iceland.
