In previous years we've cancelled and delayed get-togethers due to snow. This year, the UK is experiencing heavy rain and floods that are likely to result in 2012 being one of the wettest years on record.
On Christmas day we enjoyed the simple pleasure of splashing and wading through puddles and watching an impromptu synchronised swimming display from the ducks. But we also thought of all those who have been evacuated from their homes due to flooding, or who weren't able to travel to be with loved ones. That's no fun at all.

Stay safe.
We've had miserable weather today--starting with rain, to sleet, to freezing rain, to snow and back through the list a couple of times. Roads are slippery with lots of fender benders. I hope it all clears up tomorrow.
