Yeah made it back to Esperaza :)

 Despite dodgy weather and anxieties at the airport, made it back - to a certain level of chaos and no internet. Getting organised and back on line so heres a picture of the dinner table last night at Pete and Nels where the electricty was flickering on and off most of the night. Good fun nevertheless, thanks Pete and Nel xxxxx

Here is the view from the studio this morning...  Rennes le Chateau in the misty distance, Toby and Leos house in the snowy foreground.

 Walking Lily was rather fraught as she tends towards the unmanageable end of the disturbed dog spectrum at the best of times. The ice made me fear for my limbs but all is well and I aint budging again till this is over. Nice man scattered salt down the impasse though.

WHO has gift-wrapped the station, and why????

 Heres Jess licking the snow off his/her feet, doing rather better than Alex who just looks wet and grubby
