Snow again
Well yesterday we woke up to a thin covering of snow - perhaps almost an inch. That's enough to paralyse our roads, however, and the buses and trams were already on strike anyway.
Not only that but the chidlren had been on a church kids sleepover and we were supposed to collect Catrin at 12, then Gwilym at 2.
Not only that but Samuel Stagiaire was due to be coming to our place at 2:30 so we could proceed to Blaye for 3:30 to sing in the streets before the Blaye Christmas service.
So Alan became a slightly concerned bunny - how would we be where we needed to be with snowy roads ? Some of the timing was a bit dodgy anyway...
Well we had a quick family confabulation and decided that we'd take some lunch with us when we collected Catrin, that we'd stay at the church and meet Sam Stage there and that we'd proceed from there to Anglade. A slight complcation ensued when Gwilym was needed till 3 instead of two, but we compromised on 2:30 and left for Anglade in reasonably good time to find the sun shining and the streets nice and dry.
We sang in the streets in Anglade but most people have double-glazing ( and those that don't will be phoning the companies on Monday ) so there was no sign of life as we sang, except from the happy dogs of Anglade.
But some new visitors were there anyway from invitations in mailboxes. It was a good time.
Jolly good ! All was fine !
