Barry Hi Ben and Sarah. We have been watching your progress with interest and envy. We had a very quiet Xmas and New Year. Very enjoyable after weeks of workmen tramping around the house in their big boots. The extension/conservatory is up and in use. Still some minor electrical and other work to be done before completion so the big boots are back on the 7th. Just to make your day, here in Munich the temp hasn't been above freezing for over 3 weeks and the record low is -11.6 deg C. We have snow in the gaden. We were in Kitzbuhel on the 1st for the fireworks. There it was - 16 and lots of good snow. Take care of yourselves. Barry and Sue
