Dunkirk Spirit


It's lovely how you get to know your neighbours when it's like this. Whether you're giving eachother's cars the heave-ho or sharing tales of each other's torrid travels, as much as we moan, I think snow brings people together. The more vulnerable neighbours have all been checked in on and plates of dried fruit and nuts have been put out to make sure our little friends don't go without. There's something to be said for a bit of snow. 

We braved the blizzard and locals are out in their hoards stocking up on essentials. Milk is being rationed in our local grocery store and the queues for the butchers, bakers and greengrocers are out the door. I joined the frenzy of buyers to grab some supplies, followed by some good old fun in the snow.
