BBBbbbrrrr.......

Its getting really cold. What a change from last week's generally sunny and mild days. The coats and jumpers are out in action. Soon, I'll be pottering around the house in my comfy slipper socks. The clock will move back one hour in no time and days get shorter and shorter. In the winter months, the girls go to bed as early as 7pm as it gets dark around 3+pm. I am not looking forward to picking Louisa from school in the dark, so miserable. On a brighter note, as we are unlikely to be going back home this Christmas, I am no longer dreading spending the cold holiday season in UK as we have made many friends since moving to this town. I was telling Adrian the other day, I have seen more Asian faces in these past 2 months than the 3yrs 7mths we spent in the previous village. Of course we can make friends with the locals but there's a definite immediate connection and familiarity when it comes to Japanese/Malaysians/Hong Kongers.
