“It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas,” so sang Johnny Mathis. Opening the curtains this morning I had a shock, followed by a rather unseasonal phone call. Of course all of you who know me here will realise that I’m always polite and so the caller went away to become a customer another day…

It’s snowing quite hard near Baldock,
not quite enough yet to ski,
No snowman-building is happening,
but give it an hour and we’ll see!
It sometimes snows in March,
mostly rain or hail,
had a phone call this morning,
“Sorry! There’s no boot sale!”

Have a great weekend and enjoy the white precipitation, shan’t rush to attach the snowplough just yet! FYI Baldock Boot Sale starts after Easter!
