Toronto snow

This is some of the snow that fell in Toronto yesterday. (Thank you for sending me this picture, Shelagh.)

It's about 3 years' worth of our English snow, and if it had fallen round here, there would be a million little over-excited kids with wet mittens hurtling down the hill on red plastic sledges to the river at the end of the street. And a load of long-suffering parents dragging them up the hill again, muttering under their breath.
