Christmas, with Snow too!

Merry Christmas to you all!

Here's some photos I took just yesterday. Since the snow hadn't all melted away yet*, I thought yesterday I'd take the rare opportunity to have a mud-free meander around nature's domain. Fortunately there are no coyotes living in northern England, just blackbirds. You can see one of them 13th picture in, just left of centre, mostly they fly away before you get the camera aimed.

Also, one other thing, is that I was - as usual - treated to the occasional sound of a gunshot from nearby farms. Hunting. It's good to know not all guns are illegal in the Soviet UK.



Put your feet up, keep warm, and prepare for the unholy assault on your personal liberty to resume in 2010.

*actually I speak too soon. Last night we got another inch or two of the stuff...global warming at work I tell you...Schöne (weiße) Weinachten alles!
