Thank you for your encouragement.<BR/>Yes, it did snow in London, not enough to settle of course, except on people's hair and shoulders. It was Freezing!<BR/>We have been to Scotland several times and just adore it! My forbears were Scots and Yorkshiremen. I believe I have some connection with clan McLeod via the McNicols of Lewis. Have been to Dunvegan. Last time we were in Scotland we went up the west coast via Ft. William and Skye, across the Cairngorms, up to the Orkneys, and then back down the east coast into England. Loved your current entry, will take the time to browse the others now. The world is full of kittens, isn't it? Our 18 year old cat chose to go to the great cattery in the sky on Christmas Day last. We are still petless, as it is nice to head off without having to worry about pets but we do miss her fiercely. I have broken protocol already with the length of this but I am sure you will understand.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18093443871303667033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23379328.post-73660629552733763242007-07-05T05:40:00.000+01:002007-07-05T05:40:00.000+01:00We mhad heard the news about Glasgow.
