Still waiting for the thaw

View from the garage window this morning. 
Due to family circumstances we are having Christmas a week early this year. I googled the 18th Dec and it apparently is the date when Kublai Khan founded the Yuan dynasty. So maybe we celebrate that. Baijiu in the glasses and a toast to Xanadu. Ganbei! 
Meanwhile I am having to drive down from Norfolk to Epping tube station as it is the furthest Sam and Sofia are able to venture from London by rail today. Wish me luck, and hope you're all having a good weekend :-)
