Sounds nice, but that can be even more uncomfortable. The last time I was in Oz it was white with a thick hoare frost and just as cold as here. The world weather is topsy turvy. I saw on the news this week, Syria (normally hot) was covered in snow and people were freezing.

John, some things are just not worth the effort.
The time it would take to educate some of the ignoramus's around here, regarding my sacred tab nabs, would take forever.
As far as them never having heard of rum essence.
That's cause I have corned the market.
None available to the unwashed masses!

When I was navigating big VLCCs the bar was a dry one. No alcohol, I used to take Rum essence with me, a few drops in a glass of Coke and almost like the real thing.

SNOW:
Had to laugh at the telly, the MET OFFICE mentioned the snow in Bolton. Something white in Bolton, her indoors retorted.
Whatever: but as Confuscious say: DO NOT EAT YELLOW SNOW ?
Stay with friends in Wigan often, next trip will try to arrange early and buy you a pint..
Will have to be at the Kings Arms as I hear the Queens Legs are shut.
