As you sit around the braai sipping a cold Castle, think of us in Europe.

Currently the RhB system in Graubunden in closed in three sections due to snow. The problem is quite widespread as trees are blown onto catenary wires and snow piles up all along the routes.

I hope nobody within earshot mentions global warming!
