Monday 15.11.2010

Chrystal clear sky, champagne air - or should that be Cava in this Age of Austerity...cue song:
"this is the dawning of the age of austerity........"
Anyway - the hard overnight frost lingered in the shade but the sun was warm as we walked the woods at lunchtime.



The sky was full of geese: I know they`re supposed to fly south for the winter but these were heading in all directions.
On top of that the clear skies at night mean the waxing moon and stars make for beautiful drives home from work.
A friend has left her Australian home to spend a couple of months in India but I wouldn`t swap her on days - and nights - like these, much as I like the sound of her Christmas lunch:
"curry and rice followed by gulab jamun, washed down with tender coconut juice"

Been meaning to recommend Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monkton Kidd. Excellent read (and not a bad film either).
