And what have the last few years been like in the Monkton area? You've well made known your disappointment in your snowfall for this year for YBY, but unless we get a decent region-wide event, it's generally north and west that will do better than the rest of us (I mean...take last year for example!).
What I'm saying is that just because this year has been quite a good January for some of us doesn't mean that other places with a crap year so far didn't have far better years recently.
