Talk about climate shock! Less than a week ago I was walking along a warm sunny beach in a short sleeved shirt! It has been snowing here all day, and by the time I took this it was four inches deep in the back garden. Mizzie saw me outside and decided to join me by leaping down the back stairs. No sooner had she hit the patio than she realised that it was up to her chin - hence the look on her face. She promptly turned around and leapt back up the stairs on to the top of the gently humming tumble dryer, where she had a bath to hide her embarrassment (or so it seemed).
