Frozen fountains
One doesn't like to harp on about the weather, but the past week deserves mention. It has been the coldest week I have ever experienced! This was driven home to me when I discovered the canal outside my house had completely frozen over (in the daytime) as had the fountains in Trafalgar Square! Temperatures have sunk as a low as -6C overnight with daily maximums struggling to reach 3C. I don't think I shall ever again have reason to complain about winter in Adelaide, where the average temperature in July reaches a comparatively balmy 15C!

Hi from Mike in Adelaide,
Today it is going to be 28C. Clear skies, gentle breeze. We will wander down to the beach, walk for an hour or so and have a bit of a dip in the clear blue water. Even the sharks are friendly. Then we will sit for a while in a cafe having a flat white (I hear that even the coffee is crappy in London). I hope you enjoy the sleet and ice over there.
