Feel unduly spoiled here when we look at the temperatures elsewhere - though not Cyprus where the highs are still in the mid-twenties, and where we'll be in another nine days. Northern Europe is pretty cold, though, with parts of Scotland going as low as -20 and hundreds of schools closed, not by the cold but by snowfalls as great as 16 inches. The Telegraph online shows a very Canadian looking selection of UK photos this morning. BBC online features advice on driving on snow and ice to a readership few of whom would ever have seen snow tyres.

Drink the cheaper bottle of Tunisian - and are delighted to find it's much the better of the two.
