Technical Difficulties
I'm afraid that I've been having some technical difficulties posting my pictures (the keyboard doesn't work on my home desktop computer and I'm just too lazy to sort it out.) I did manage to somehow make this collage and so perhaps this will give you just a little glimpse of what has been going on with me in the last 6 months.
Starting top left and going clockwise: on the road to Gairloch for camping, fall foliage, Sophie with her bug hat (we all looked like idiots but these saved our asses!), frozen everything (it was -4 C all day - brrrr!)

Stockholm and the Weather
Loved Stockholm. What a beautiful city. We arrived on a Friday night to a gloriously cold and wet city. The rather sombre weather made it seem a bit more haunting and mysterious, especially as the streets were often completely deserted. Stockholm in January would not appear to be high on the list of tourist destinations and this made it even better...no lines - thank god! We did a lot of walking and napping and the weekend whooshed past until alas, we were home again on Monday night. I'll be posting pictures this weekend.
The weather in the UK seems to be all that anyone is talking about these days. The UK has been saddled with oodles of snow, that is, unless you live in Stirling, Scotland. We had a fair bit of snow by Monday night (driving home from work was hideous) but the snow had melted away by morning - but only if you live in Stirling. It's been snowing a teeny bit the last couple of days and has been cold enough to keep the ground white and lovely. I can only hope that it will stay this way over the weekend so that I can finally enjoy a white winter weekend!

I go, we go, we all go for Aygo!
I've got a new, used car. She is the 2007 Toyota Aygo, a wee silver streak of panache and beauty. I've inherited her from David's mother, who sadly can't drive the tiny speedster any longer. I think the diminutive stature of this snazzy vehicle officially makes me tres European.
