I'm going to miss the snow. Not that we have it often down here in the SW, but I do love it.
I think I'll miss being able to buy everything in the one supermarket, i.e. alcohol and food. When we validated it felt quite strange going to the bottle shop and then food shopping. But hey I'll get over it!

Cheers
