1/. Unseen by the staff Secret shoplifter Prepares his report 2/. Horrible weather Rain and snow in the winter Who would have thunk it? 3/. Discontent Winter Richard’s prophesy brought true Not just bad weather 4/. Step off the pavement Base-jumping for beginners Careful of traffic 5/. Happy Saint Andrew’s Day Scotland, ours slew dragons But we ignore him. Arthur Chappell

@arthurchappell thanks for the St. Andrews reminder. We Latvian also celebrate names days and today is my hubby's sons names day Andris. It is a typical Latvian name but I guess in English he would be called Andy.
