>>As to the weather, spring has not arrived yet. It still feels like winter! Actually saw some snow yesterday and today here!
Yes there has been some snow in the Isle of Man, ahem - but with the terrible weather in the UK, aren't you feeling cut off? ;-)
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
