Hum, so why do I have more than a weeks worth of non perishable food
in the cupboards, backup lighting, heating and cooking provision,
plenty of warm clothing and excess warm bedding etc etc

Wonder how many have wives and girlfriends? Few.

Partner and two kids (7 & 4). SWMBO doesn't like snow all that much
but the two kids do, unfortunately being at 1400' snow is quite often
powder and useless for constructional purposes. Still at least my kids
get to build two or three snowmen a year. I was speaking to an old
college friend who lives in Birmingham the other day, his eldest is
not that short of going to university, they have never built a
snowman...
