Well, just in case you feel homesick, it's currently 2 degrees C here in
London.  Not bad considering they forecast a max of 1.  I heard, though,
that it was -11 in Oslo earlier today.  Brrr...

The tube has it's pros and cons but at about AUD$12 per zone 1/2 ticket
you'd expect a bit more really.  And petrol is about AUD$3/L so that's
prohibitively expensive too.

I'll probably be up in Derby over Christmas so you'll have to give me more
details of that pub! :)
