I don't think we'll do a tree... not even sure about decorations, since we'll be away for a week at Christmas. We ARE making delicious fruit cake though, this weekend, should be ready for us when we return (after a month of brandy spritzing). I wish I could eat this stuff all year round, it is Teh Yum. But that's probably about it as far as festive traditions go this year...
Hmm, I need to price London-Edinburgh flights...
How cheap are those short, UK hoppers, Nora? Are they reasonable? I mean, in case I ever make it back there, I want to do Ireland and Scotland as well as England.
I can dream big.

There was snow here last night. Slick roads. Roll over accident. Not my shuttle, but the one I almost got on had it happen right in front of them. I got to hear the play by play over the CB in our shuttle. Way to start the trip.
I slept like poo last night. Why are hotel rooms so noisy? Not talking about folks in the rooms near me - just the in room noises. Blarg.
eta - talk about timing. The local news just had a report about the roll over and both passengers came out of it ok.
Well, not so good if you want to fly the Saturday before Xmas. Sigh. We are quite FUCKING FUCKED.
I wonder if I can cajole the hotel that has the non refundable room to, er, refund the reservation... doubtful
'Tis the season to gouge the traveller.
Yeah, it looks like we'll probably take the train up on Saturday and then fly back on Tuesday (no trains on Tuesday). The one way on Tuesday is about $65, so that's pretty cheap (that includes taxes, etc)

Welcome to the Intermountain West. We had lovely weather this past weekend. Thanks oodles for bringing the storm.
