Downhill

There hasn't been much opportunity to get out and enjoy the great outdoors lately thanks to temperatures and wind chills so low that it feels like you could quite easily lose an ear if you forget your woolly hat.

However, last weekend was bearable and we had a nice dump of snow in the city so we bought a sledge and, after some fun with the neighbours, headed for the slopes of Frick Park. Adam soon discovered that standing up is more fun than sitting down (I am biased but his sense of balance is amazing) and so he has now progressed to a snow board.

PS: To change the subject...check out this fantastic Will Hutton piece in the Guardian.

PPS: Since I am in "Guardian Mode"....check this one out too. Makes you think dunnit?
