Wow. I can't even fathom flowers growing outdoors at this time of year, though I know that the climate in southern England is pretty mild in some areas. I seem to remember hearing that there are palm trees in Torquay. In any case, if your parents are trying to convince you to return to Canada, I don't think sending pictures of snowstorms is the wisest tactic. It must be a guilt trip. *g* Still, the snow can be very pretty -- when you're indoors and know you don't have to go out in it for a while!
I'm glad you think Minerva is adorable. I don't think I've come across anyone who hasn't fallen for her charms. :-)
