Booking a short weekend trip to an island in the Mediterranean promised us some respite to the cold English winter. Unfortunately for us, the promised 'warmth' was too short in duration with less than two hours worth of sunglasses time and t-shirt worthy sunshine. Initially the weather forecast had promised clear sunny skies; however we were denied seeing any blue sky by a thick layer of cloud cover that threatened rain and brought some familiar chilly gusts of wind. So we traded in our sunglasses for a puffy goose down jacket, gloves, cap and scarf - dressed just as if we had never left the UK.
