Almost there with internet at home -- probably just need Melita to come out for a fifth time to do their job and we'll be done. Amazing that it takes so much effort for something normally so straight forward, but this is Malta after all.
Second thoughts The snow had given way to rain at last, though it was a light, freezing rain and wasn't really melting the mounded snow very much, and people were staring out of their windows wondering if they were willing to start clearing their paths. Angela, her hood pulled up and the drawstrings tightened, was already out, digging steadily through the snow and tossing it to the side. Only when the first hand poked through the snow did she have second thoughts about being the first on the street to have a clear path to the road. When the hand grabbed the shovel and pulled it from her, she screamed and ran back indoors.

Greg - ugh. Hadn't realized you still didn't have internet at home. Hopefully you do now though?
Yeah, heading back inside on the double seems like the right response to me...
