JUST NOTICED THE TIME. SHEESH. SORRY. Late on today's rounds. Another very American sized bin from our US correspondent Ravi here. This time it's BEAR PROOF.

SNOW: INFORMER: THERE'S LOTS OF IT ABOUT. Dogs love it, especially labradors, cos it reminds them of home.

IT'S CHRISSSSSSSSSTMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAS! (As Noddy Holder says)

Being so cold out we decided to hark back to warmer times. Here's a double landscape treat from France. Don't let the (pou)bell(es) end...

PS. Sorry for being 24 hours late. It was icy yesterday so we couldn't get round.
