At the risk of offending our friends from the north, although this Winter's not been a classic, still far better than many I can remember. Snow still hanging around, couple of cms in the garden.
I also think the "winter's over" talk is premature as 2008 brought a good dumping of snow here at the beginning of April. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see a cold March with more fun and games to come, though this is based on a hunch rather than any technical analysis!
