Late back from interstate. This will be quick. Questions from Bev at Sunday Stealing.
1. Do you prefer winter or summer? Why?
Winter. I much prefer to be cold and then getting warm. Joys of being a woman of a certain age.
2. What are your favorite winter activities?
Australian Rules Football and sleeping under two quilts.

On both occassion for both sports, I fell over. I was better at skiing - skating I have no control.

#2 - and eating meat pies? (Remembering my one experience watching a Footy championship match)
Yes, the Olylmpics are on. It is my understanding that the Australian coverage is generally far more complete than what we get here (highlights). My Australian friend who visited us during one Olympics was terribly frustrated at being unable to watch the way she did at home.
I have never, ever eaten a meat pie. Full of horse...
