Well, the last thread was a 7 day affair. If this one is as short then I suspect my snow boots will ultimately come out of the shed around the 16th - 20th for the first time since I moved to North Somerset 10 years ago. (Missed BFTE - in Canaries). Unfortunately, here in the South granted that many snow events are created by battle scenarios, it seems that that the forces for winter are supported by a very long and tenuous supply line that can be outflanked with ease, as demonstrated by the projected set up. May this thread be long in pages and not time.
