Once upon a time...



...in the South-West of France....in a village surrounded by vine-yards, called Sigogne, there was snow......and last night was the night! It snows so little in the Charente due to its micro climate kept warm by the gulf stream, that when it happens it is a big event. It also snowed in London at the same time though it looks like more snow fell in Sigogne than London. Temparatures in the Charente are also lower than London at the moment, though it is getting colder in London now, its been a strange winter this year so far, hopefully the vines and other crops will survive this spell as January and February are planting out times normally in this area.
