They’ve now changed the weather predictions from snow to rain and it’ll also be “much” warmer than they guessed yesterday. Instead we’ll get loads of rain and my neighbor and I wondered if that was better because we really don’t need more rain now and everything is just muddy when we go indoors again.

I was thinking of what I might buy myself as a christmas present this year. It shouldn’t be anything I really need because that I should buy anyway. So my first thought was a telescope to watch the stars at night. The problem with that is that it’s usually cloudy almost all winter when it is dark enough to actually watch the stars and in summer when the sky is clear it’s never really dark here at all, just a couple of hours in the middle of the night because even when the sun has set or before it rise again it’s really quite bright here.

So no telescope, that would just be a waste of money. Then I’ve been thinking of one of those terrariums, You know where one quarter is like an aquarium and three quarters are for plants. The problem is that my cottage is rather small so I don’t have the space for one except if I built it myself to fit upstairs but then again I’m as handy as a drunk badger so that’s not going to happen 🙂

So I guess it’ll be a big tin box with Quality Street chocolates, 2,5 kilos (slightly more than 5 pound), I’ll most likely have two weeks vacation then and if the weather is nice I could walk all that chocolate off 🙂 🙂 🙂

Have a great day!
