Proof Against

We've got away lightly so  far weather-wise in Cork. There's been rain (obviously) and a chill in the air, but we haven't had the kind of snow that's hit the UK. The forecast for tonight is for a few inches of snow but there's no sign of it so far.

You all know by now that I'm not one for hot weather. One can say that one likes the winter but what one really means is that one likes to feel proof against the winter. To walk and play in the snow and then to come to a warm dry house, a change of clothes and a mug of hot chocolate; to sit by a window and watch the rain lashing down outside. So I'm about to head for bed, snuggle under my duvet and pretend that tomorrow doesn't require me to do anything!
