"No such thing as bad weather......

just bad clothing and poor preparation" - or at least it goes something like that. No, the weather here hasn't suddenly turned bad again but as I was clearing out the camera after all the photos from Leo's show I found some photos that Robert had taken of the boys (taken from inside the flat it has to be said.......Canadian my eye!!) during the snow. I love the photos of Thomas as he was clearing our neighbour's path - in shorts!! He couldn't bear being out there in long trousers - all those years of scouting have left their mark. When he started scouting I was horrified to find out that they wear shorts all year round - in all weathers and in all temperatures - the logic being if you get wet and cold it's a whole lot easier to change a pair of socks than is to walk around in sopping wet trousers - and my boys clearly live by that!




 
And then there is my very own snow angel .........

  3. Thomas is a hearty soul! Not sure anyone here in middle Missouri would shovel snow in shorts...Scout or no Scout!
