    I'm on the brink of giving up on january bringing anything wintry, so that would be 66 percent of winter gone without any winter. There is not one crumb of comfort from the latest met office outlook, just more of the same autumnal wind and rain with snow on the scottish mountains if they are lucky. I have lost all my enthusiasm. :-(

    Nooooooooooooooooooooo..I love your optimistic posts

    It's magical for sure, wouldn't it be more magical though if it just appeared unexpectedly, as a great surprise, a gift from the blue? If the models show snow and it snows then you expected it already, and it doesn't snow you're dissapointed. If you don't know what's going to happen; if it doesn't snow there's no disapointment and if it does it's a great surprise.

    I know what you mean however if I didn't know it was coming I wouldn't be able to set my alarm to watch it fall which I also love.

    A wee philosophical musing, why do people 'hunt' for weather, such as cold and snow, as if it were some kind of quarry? You have some control over hunting a quarry but none over the weather. If it's going to snow it's going to snow, if it's not then it's not, whether you look at the charts and hunt for it or not makes no difference at all. So why do people do it? Not having a dig at anyone, I do it myself, just interested why... us humans are strange.

    I know what you mean, I rarely look at the weather apart from during the winter. I think its because its so rare to have a decent snowfall it becomes exciting. Like the search for the holy grail, and there is nothing more magical than stepping out in the night when it has snowed, there is a different kind of quiet and a lovely glow to the world. Why wouldn't you search for that :-)
