Ah, I remember those west Oregon winters – much like the soggy winters here in the UK. Colchester has been pleasantly dry, which has been a pleasant surprise. It’s been grey and drizzly up here in Preston – much more like standard issue English winter. We’ll have a cup of tea and think of you!

Holiday Cheers from damp Eugene. Okay; it is really soggy, not just damp. A good reason to brew a spot of tea.
