I am glad that you enjoy the postcards.

No, I hadn’t seen that … thank you for putting me right! I had seen reports about the storm in the middle east in some of the British newspapers … (but I hadn’t seen this. However, in my defense – the photos were only the stimulus for the theme of the post and don’t really affect the rest of the content!)

Anyway, I’ll make a confession in next week’s postcard.

This postcard, however, showing the pyramids covered in snow made me wonder: haven’t you found out that these pictures happened to be a hoax? It’s been all over the Internet. Look here, for example, http://www.hoaxorfact.com/Pranks/amazing-pictures-showing-snowfall-on-pyramids-and-sphinx-facts.html.
