Happy chappy

Eitan prepares for the winter walk to St Mary's Montessori (24/2/04). London's boggy weather is not as bad as most foreigners think - 45 inches of precipitation a year, or about the same as San Francisco. The difference: it occurs throughout the year. Plus we have dull, overcast days especially in the early months of the year. And the sun goes down at 1530 following daylight savings ('spring forward, fall-back'). The kids know nothing else - what they worry?
