Does anybody fancy a warm winter holiday in Barcelona? May be not.

And it continues to fall.

Gloriously shot from Chateau Domenec a couple of hours after ****ing off the
office sharply, listening to some "it won't be that hard" comments from
other bikers. Bikers who haven't lived for a year in the Alps, nor had been
part of the university ski team, so they don't know the type of snow flakes
that means "this is serious stuff coming"- In a war I'd be a coward, but a
living coward :-)

Tarragona early this year had ferking great snowfalls. I travelled the
Zaragoza-Barcelona highway and you would believe you were in the Alps =:-o

I remember other snowfalls in '85, '99, '01 and '05, this one looks like a
good one.

But he Big One was back in '62, 50cm of snow!

Tibidabo was showing some white this morning, and local police had closed
the access. Now vehicles accessing the neighbourhoods on the mountain (100
metres above sea level) are having serious fun.

Tomorrow morning I hope to get some stunning pics from the office and
Chateau D'om.

Indeed. The damn thing just isn't igniting, and it wasonly serviced six
weeks ago, too.
