Ah yes, British insulation... Well, over here it's cold, the snow is deep, and it's perfectly snug inside. ;)

An old building that I'm not sure is insulated at all.

and yes I do that it is criminal that there are no stautory obligations for new buildings to have swedish style insulation.

19 degrees here in Jerusalem (was 21 earlier today). Hope they sort out all the train and airport problems by the time I come back to Munich on Saturday.

I don't know what the figure was for Munich, but Düsseldorf was closed on account of a whopping, insurmountable 13 cm of snow.

But I wouldn't worry about your flight back. Central Europe is scheduled to revert to its dark and damp winter norm by then.

9 in of snow all around over everything, water froze, even after i left it dripping for 3 days, it just came back on hallelujah. house is toasty with 2 woodstoves running and extra insulation fron the snow on the roof. i went up to try and sweep the snow off the PV panels, but it was too icy to be working on a pitched tile roof.

the road's impassable, luckily i stocked up just before it hit, watching what was happening in n. france and england.

so many beans to eat from the experiment last year, (pity the donkey ate the soya).

filthy head cold, now receding. prolly a bug i picked up in some airport. great to be back home though, now if only i could teleport to costa rica every morning for some rock and roll wave action!

gotta set something up in costa rica...
