It's turned to sleet now, so it's just grey and wet, typical March weather for Aberdeen!

The weather's gone mad. Snowing here too...

Yes I picked this up from the BBC news:
Snowstorms have caused transport chaos around the Greek capital Athens, with one overnight traffic jam stretching for up to 15km (9 miles).
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-12674491

Yeah, it really makes me angry. National road was closed down by a couple of snowflakes... I picked this up from the above link:
"The snow that closed down the road at Malakasa was comparatively light and Transport Minister Dimitris Reppas accused the consortium that manages it, Nea Odos, of failing to do its job properly"
New interpretative Greek dictionary describes the word as this: "Malakas= the, adjective: the greek driver, who pays the most expensive toll rates universally"

BTW, sunny, calm and 20oC... here we go again... mackinaws: back to the attic  :rolleyes:

Let Qantas speed you here to the UK where the end of November weather in the midlands is about 12 centigrade with a nice cooling drizzle.

Recent high winds have caused the oak trees which surround our house to shed leaves and acorns in record amounts. I am working on my sun tan with the daily 1 hour chore of clearing leaves from the gardens.

If you are referring to cleaning up the leaves - that is exactly what I do on the lawns and hard paving. However - we have lots of flower borders and it's a real back-ache chore sucking up the leaves with a leaf blower/vacuum.
