WHERE DID WINTER GO?

There's been hardly any snow in Denmark this year. True, there have been storms, and a lot of trees have come down. But that means that it has been wet, rather than cold.

And now it seems that winter is over. This weekend and next week it will be between 12 and 14 degrees, unusually mild for this time of year. Time to get the bike out and get rid of those extra Christmas pounds.
