Thanks GEL. Congratulations on your new role on the wiki. It's a position well earned.

I just have one more item to collect from the Orangery and 11 more days in which to do it so I'm doing great. I'm not interested in going for the avatars this time.

Although the forecast had been for this to be a long and bitter winter, it has actually been quite mild. This is probably the coldest week that we'll get and you do need to bundle up for Winterlude activities (Ottawa's winter festival on the canal and beyond). It's supposed to get down to -17C tonight (0 to -7C is more normal). But I just got all of the ingredients for Hamburger Soup chopped and simmering in the stock pot -- a sure way to ward off the cold!

Thanks again for asking and cheers to you in your new role. 🥂
