Yep, i like winters to be cold and dry with frost and snow, but unless you live somewhere like Northern Sweden and the like you tend to get wind and rain and not that much of a proper winter, we will just have blame it on global warming.
Regarding VCI sites, yes most of the European site are very quiet, only Russia and Scotland are doing anything and some of the others are not even open, maybe things could improve in time, or is that wishful thinking.
