Tuesday 21.01.2020

Another day of unseasonably (whatever that means these days) mild temperatures. At least, they were mild here. Not so down south I believe - is schadenfreude the word? :)

What we didn`t have were the fiery skies, morning and evening, that we`ve had for the last couple of days, the sun in a bright blue sky and a lot of very confused birds: "it feels like Spring but it doesn`t look like Spring".

Instead we have been swathed in cloud for much of the day, low cloud when I beat the bounds first thing this morning and though it lifted for a few hours it descended again as we hit the woods later on in the afternoon.

Immediately we were transported to a strange and mystical place where the lichen glowed, the grass shone so green it hurt the eyes, the air was so still not even the smallest branch at the top of the tallest tree moved and the silence was deafening. Any kind of ghostly apparition or mythical creature could have appeared from behind a tree and it would not have been in the least surprising.

In other news Spendiferous Stories & Heady Ideas is finally up and running after quite a lot of false starts. I hope to have a lot of fun with it.
