Heartfelt Christmas and New Year Greetings from a very rainy and windy Storrington, very near the south coast of England.

The forecasters tell us we have a 35% chance of a light sprinkling of snow tomorrow. If it happens, it will be the first time for many years that we've had snow at Christmas.

Personal note: I should like to take this opportunity to thank the numerous members and friends, predominantly overseas, who have sent me Christmas cards and E-mailed greetings. I was totally unprepared for this 'deluge' and will be writing to those dear souls in the New Year. May each and every one of you enjoy a Blessed Christmas and a Happy and Peaceful New Year.
