Our postman when we lived in Wales would make a point of knocking at the doors of the elderly on the remote farms and chatting to them. He was great! He would even take post and them let them know what it had cost the following day. A real community service. I dare say that if he knew folks didn't have a freezer with bread he would bring that too. It's at times like this you do see a real community spirit in action. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-44647189749960433802010-12-04T00:11:31.588+00:002010-12-04T00:11:31.588+00:00This must be quite unusual for you to have such we...This must be quite unusual for you to have such weather this early in the winter.

I only remember it snowing twie in London--both times little more than half a centimetre or so. I always wanted it to snow at xmas--of course, it never did. <br /><br />that is so good waht your group is doing, getting out there. It is a GREAT way to show God's love to one anothr, isn't it? i do that with my neighbours early in the morn. <br /><br />Now, how woudl you handle a 14 inch snow dump in one snowfall as we can get here in Colorao along the front range. now, in the mountains it can snow 4 feet in one day! Whoa. funnily enough, most of the time it is totally dry here and yet people think of it as always snowy--a misnomer on par with London;s so called constant "fog"Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17712046924863763290noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3606833213419475387.post-13245707249771654022010-12-03T21:35:32.329+00:002010-12-03T21:35:32.329+00:00It is all white with snow here too, but not like w...It is all white with snow here too, but not like what you are experiencing.
