Not much to report. Spent some more time in Romania, saw snow while waiting for a connecting flight in Vienna (not a whole lot, sadly), which turned into a snow monkey's wedding - thought that was something, and then had more of the same here in the UK over the past 2 days. Well, I think you'd call it snow - the stuff looks a bit hard for snow, but definitely too soft to be hail. Snail, perhaps?

Update: we had real snow today. Not enough for snowpersons, but enough for a half-hour mostly-covered coating on the grass. We can now declare this winter not a complete waste of a season.
