All hands at work...

... clearing the snow. Our children were visiting for "Christmas Lunch" (16:30?22:00), but the driveway needed to be cleared of snow for them to park their cars.

Here everyone is digging, assisted by next door neighbours (and, out of shot, a very active and competent small boy).

Your photographer's task (other than taking photographs) was to repair the tools as they became broken through over-enthusiastic use!
