Winter wonderland

Saturday, in bright sunshine, I was almost tempted to try cycling into town, but noticed enough movement of trees to play it safe. And that was a wise move - the wind was raw and unpleasant even for walking.

Sunday, there was ice on the pond, except where covered. The winds was still raw, and with snow showers, we decided not to bother with the jazz concert in town we'd got tickets for on spec.

This morning snow, but no ice on the pond (only a slight thickening of slush) and it felt much milder, with less wind. Snow showers still, but the snow is melting - but will probably make it an early night on general principals.
