little .Comments please.

I enjoy Bob's posts and see no reason why he shouldn't post here.
OK they get more snow there but why that gauls you says more about you
than it does about anything else.
So do I.
I think the common interest is the fact that the winter climate can vary
so widely over the northern hemisphere. Us with our balmy climate
so far north (to him) and him with his fridgid one so far south (to us).
Perhaps the best thing for Bob to do would be to put 'OT' in
the header so that anybody who really doesn't want to read it
can easily filter it out.
The weather does not respect international boundaries so I would
be very wary of encouraging a policy where anything other than
discussion of UK weather was frowned upon.
Absolutely. And that goes for Yannis and Colin too. Otherwise we're
confined to the BBC way of looking at it, where the weather mysteriously
stops happening even though the actual map continues....
