It was so lovely to hear so many peoples' news and some great snow photos. It seems the UK weather is pretty up and down right now.
Well, whilst in Britain you've all been building snow men and suffering wind chill, we've been building sand castles on the beach and eating ice cream. The kids were desperate to go and whilst it's still school holidays here, I thought I should reward their patience in the shops/offices/banks etc. I've attached a couple of pictures of them on our local tropical beach.
I hope these images of white sand and palm trees in the sun won't make anyone too jealous and you will all still write to us!
Actually, we planned to go this morning and after packing a bag and plastering ourselves with suncream, we all put our shoes on to leave, only to hear a loud crash of thunder and shortly after, the heavens opened. We got out after lunch when the weather cleared and I was glad to make use of the suncream - it's a precious commodity here with regards to Hannah, as she reacts badly to most brands except the Boots own, Soltan. We had to ship mountains of it out here and I can't affort to waste it now as Boots doesn't have branches here!

I am absolutely NOT commenting on this post - far too jealous!
(Would you like me to hand-carry some suntan cream out to you if you run out? I could do that - no trouble at all!)
We're definitely going to need more of the Boots stuff here, when are you free?
