It's been freezing here today! Low twenties, and the same is predicted for tomorrow. But no snow round here either; I am talking celsius. Last week they were saying it'd be about 30 tomorrow, and it was yesterday, but we had a change come in this morning.

(Incidentally, I don't know French, but I have noticed a bit that adjectives sometimes come before the noun, and sometimes after. Are there rules for when, or are adjective-before just fixed phrases or something?) -- Tristan.
