DARK, DAMP AND DREARY!


It was dark, damp and dreary this morning.  The frost and ice has gone already.   That's what I love about the weather in this country - it keeps changing and always gives you something to talk about!  I would hate to live somewhere, cold or hot, where the weather was predictable and the same day after day... 

We moved on at quite a pace in the gentle rain.  Loads of bins were out ready for collection, but the one pictured above blended in better than most!


Our walk took us to Bowlish, past the infant school and then back through West Shepton.  Couldn't resist a quick detour into Aldi to see if there were any bargains! Bought some cheap tea towels for the material, not for drying dishes!  We always carry a bit of money - just in case...  Unfortunately, when we got out it really was pouring down, so by the time we made it home we were soaked!  I was glad I was wearing my waterproof trousers!  Jenny was not so prepared...


I have just been given some silver birch bark by one of members of the gallery, who is a wood turner.  It is incredibly thin and paper like with lovely markings.  I will be incorporating it into an artwork sometime soon...
