I’ve folded like a cheap napkin and put the heating on. I usually wait until the calendar has clicked over to November, but the house needs it. Anyone else flicked the switch already?
I found myself near the village of Heytesbury recently. A brilliant little village full of great memories… and one NYE with absolutely no memory!
If I took one of my dogs into a cafe with me and he/she started barking and making a lot of noise, I’d either stop the behaviour or, failing that, we would leave so as not to disturb everyone else. But parents with noisy, unruly kids….
Pretty much every week of my younger childhood - in sun, rain, or snow - I’d be in this forest. Many trees were saplings then. Some weren’t even there. Many are gone.
Yeah, just when I thought my plate was full the weather heaped on a jug full of gravy. Digging the hole out is going to be hell
