March 23rd 2013 was a special day.

It was special in Britain because the weather did something rather odd – it went back in time.

More accurately, the weather seemed to give up being Spring and decided that Winter was a much better idea.

Coincidentally, that happened to make the wedding of two of our friends rather special as it was also the day of their wedding and the world became as white as the Bride’s dress. The snow lay thick enough in Oxford, UK to cover everything in a thick, beautiful blanket but not so bad that guests and the wedding couple themselves couldn’t make it to the church.

For Thing I and I, it was a very special privilege even if we were feeling the cold rather a lot. We’d only been back in the country for a handful of days just as Bangladesh began its hot season…
