Luxury .... !!!
We used to dream of the cold and snow only staying for weeks ..

Experiencing as I did the harsh winters of 1947 and 1963 and the problems
they brought I take little pleasure in the prospect, however remote, of
prolonged cold weather. I know that for some cold weather is enjoyable on a
personal level but generally the problems for many are so obvious that I
won't list them.
Winter wouldn't be winter without some cold spells - but I hope they're
brief. - just enough to kill off a few nasty bugs and insects.
