Unscheduled day off

[caddyman]

On account of there being no Tube (though now there is, but with severe delays) and no buses to get us to where the Tube system was working at the time, Furtle and I have taken the opportunity to not bother. We're staying at home; we've stayed at home. Naughty but nice; especially as it is now snowing again and nothing is melting.

We took the opportunity to have a cooked breakfast - toasted bagels, scrambled eggs and beans, with fresh orange juice and fresh coffee and then ventured out with the camera. A quickish saunter down the High Road to record the astonishing lack of traffic and then a more leisurely walk through the park where the snow was largely untrampled, before too many kids started tobogganing and spoiling the vista. Don't get me wrong, I don't begrudge them their fun, I just wanted to be among the first to crump, crump, crump through the snow. I am, after all, 5 going on 50.

Here is a picture of the High Road in all its winter glory.

A chilly Furtle!


A lonely rubbish bin...

Aww it all looks so lovely! I might have to have a wander with my iPhone at lunchtime to get some photos, although uploading them will be a hassle. I think iPhone -> Facebook, Facebook -> PC, and PC-> LJ should work, though!

hehe I really enjoy these wintry photos! I'm not brave enough to venture out yet.. maybe after lunch.

Actually I look a little bit redder than I think I ought! I'm hoping some of it is reflection from the brown of the fedora!
