Reason 9. Old friends and snow

Snow has already had a mention and here it is again.....it is snowing therefore I feel happy! One of the benefits of moving to Sheffield is the snow. Chesterfield was in a strange warm microclimate of it's own.  It would be snowing in Sheffield and in Chesterfield we would have sunshine, or worse, drizzle.  Today it is snowing slowly and steadily and the weather forecast says it will continue for a few hours yet.  I am about to put on my lovely warm snowboots, coat, hat and gloves and go and play!
The old friends part is my lovely afternoon sitting around with an old friend and his son, my godson, scanning photos onto a hard drive in preparation for a party they are having.  Sitting around talking about our lives now and when the kids were small....it was fun, companiable, relaxing and everything a saturday afternoon should be.  The snow was just the icing on the cake.
