Wasn't today BEAUTIFUL?

[Lady Whistledown]

I know there are more important things happening in the grand scheme of things- the Albion's off again, the economy's steaming towards oblivion, it's bloody freezing and Israel and Palestine are still killing each other's citizens by the dozen- but I'd just like to spread a little joy by reminding you what a beautiful day it's been, thanks to one of the most spectacular frosts I've ever seen.

Driving around Sussex and Surrey at the crack of dawn this morning, everything was white and sparkling, it was like a little corner of Narnia. Absolutely breathtaking (and not just because of the cold).

I defy anyone to look at the frosty splendour of the trees, glinting in the winter sunlight- when it finally arrived- and not feel a little inspired. Makes you glad to be alive...well it does me anyway...and you're all miserable old buggers if you don't agree

A marvellous picture there, Edna.

SW13 was a feast for the eyes this morning, but didn't have my camera with me. Touch Rugby was a chilly affair :shivers:

Sort of know what you mean, Tho suppose that most of the c unts that are your natural workplace enemy have sought alternative stuff to do - indoors - for the day on account of the inclemency, therefore you get to just see the nice stuff for once. Enjoy!

You see, aren't we all feeling better already?

I only had a mobile phone camera, hence the picture isn't quite David Bailey...but you get the point

 

[Lady Whistledown]

Somewhere on the Sussex-Surrey border.

Somewhere on the Sussex-Surrey border.

Glad to see you patrolling that serious Lapland New Forest-ish crime hotspot. Wouldn't want a repeat scam of that magnitude aye? We can all sleep easier in our beds tonight

 

[Lady Whistledown]

I could tell you why I was there...but I'd have to kill you

Hurstpierpoint again. This was on my way home, so no more accusations of skiving...

Moved to Gatwick fairly recently, after a few years in Brighton. Hence trawling around the country lanes of the county border.
