It's meant to be hot down here!

This was winter Jan 2006 in Castres. We had lots of snow, as you can see lol.
I've never seen as much snow fall so quickly, plus it's meant to be hot in the south of France (ok, maybe it is hot in summer)
Our greenhouse was smashed up, along with the telephone wires.
In the middle of the night, you wake up to hear a smash as a huge tree branch falls down.
And for a whole day, the electricity wires went down, meaning the heating as well.
But having said all that, it wasn't actually that bad. We had some good snowball fights at school.
