Sunday 16.12.2012

Sneezy, coughy cold; shin splints(see previous post);a persistent pesky mouth ulcer; short days;long working hours; a succession of unfriendly weather days: combined they make you feel twice your actual age.
But then, hey presto, the aforementioned ailments clear up, the weather perks up and suddenly you feel half of it again.
Perfect winters day, the snow and ice only beginning to melt where the sun reaches, unmoving where it doesn`t.










Air so still, every sound echoed round the woods as if bouncing off each individual tree. Dogs delirious with the joy of being out again, racing in and out of the trees, disturbing every other living thing in the neighbourhood.










And everything freezing up again nicely by the time we were coming back down the hill.










And by the way, if you`re at all worried about the impending End of the World, might be worth catching up with Saturday`s post on Deadhorse to Ushuaia (link on the right)J & C`s rather brilliant blog, which will allay all fears.
Sleep well.
