Today: Sunlight on wall, Roseacre: Sunlight through wall on tree and sunlit wall, Lime tree road: An Anemone seed, a little like an inside out dandelion.

Another cold, sunny winter’s day, no frost or windscreen ice perhaps it has been too dry and cold (hoorah).

Today the yearly National Trust Handbooks landed on the frame. So bulky we struggle to fit them in the frame. In our area of NR2 at least 1in 3 families belong (some holding more than one subscription) so the bundles are big and the bags are HEAVY. We work 1.5 hr overtime but still fail to deliver all the mail on both walks.

Some timely late Christmas chocolates from a customer, opened and shared help us through.
