Yes, it is - but I forgot to mention that my picture is taken in Madagascar ;Y

No problems here but in the eastern parts they have had great trouble today with wet slippery ice everywhere. A lot of accidents.
The ice melted quickly here yesterday.

According to the sun newspaper, so it must be true, storm Clodagh is on her way and will batter Ireland and the U.K. for two weeks.

The weekend forecast here is for 'incessant falls of heavy rain', which will make a nice change from the torrential rain of late :P ;D
