I've stopped counting the number of Fridays with rain we've had in a
row. Friday is our day when we drive over to Belgium for the week's
shopping, doing everything we don't have time for during a normal
working week, and having our day off.

The car looks like a rolling mud heap but there's no point in having it
washed.

Beautiful but ominous at the same time.

Snow Storm, Paul's Fog (though there's usually either storm or fog), and
Annsan's City Snow, mainly because we haven't had any decent snow here
in almost a decade.

All the rest are great as well, of course.

Having never really been cold or encountered much snow, it is hard for 
me to appreciate the snow scenes which appear to be either devastating 
or magical. However, I can appreciate an electrical thunderstorm like 
the one so well captured by Matthew.
