>Yes, it is. In December I was not too far from you hoping for another White Christmas but eventually watching the rain melt the snow ;-) before heading across the ditch to the UK where the country was in turmoil because of the worst weather conditions in 50 years. I drove through the southwest in the un-restful snow and decided it wasn't useful, so I headed for the USA intending to visit customers but the weather was shocking with snow/ice warnings all over the place and cancelled flights etc, so I headed for the Antipodean summer where there will be no snow but lots of opportunity to be restful. ;-)

I'm getting closer to a decision - but not closer to knowing if it's the right one :-}

So where exactly were you in December before the U.S. - not clear from the post?
