I was forty years old, travelling in America, the first time I saw snow falling. The guys fixing a roof across the road were annoyed by it, then amazed by the lunatic Australian running around trying to catch it on his tongue.
For a snow virgin I displayed remarkable skills. I wanted to say,"ook evwywun, I gut thno on y tunn", but there was nobody around and the roof tilers didn't want to know.

Yes, snow is annoying, amazing, dangerous, and beautiful. Did you catch any on your tongue?
