News from Chris and Nadia






Hi everyone,

We enjoyed a weekend in warmer temperatures 2 weeks ago - around 7-10C below which was comfortable without wind, etc.; on our local open-air skating rink, and also digging out the cars / clearing snow at the dacha...

Colder now (-20C last few days in the city); managed to totally freeze my right nostril while out for a walk in the wind yesterday afternoon; a 1/2 inch square part of my nose turned pure white - first stage of dreaded frost-bite, and one doesn't feel anything... - lucky to have a friend who grew up in Siberia with me, who saw what had happened and instructed me in rubbing snow on it until it turned pink again; took a few minutes... big relief!

Enjoy a few pics attached...

lots of love, Chris Nadia James Kirsty xxxx
