So, the snow is on the way they keep telling us and I believe them as the temperature and the sky are both pointing towards winter again, I've been cutting wood so we have enough to keep the wood burners going over the next couple of weeks and for once I feel ok about working in the barn when it all arrives, it's dry, it's now for the first time warm and it's even getting tidy for a change, fingers crossed all will be well.
After the car not starting a few weeks back and the AA guy telling me to keep giving her a run out to charge battery, I've been trying to do just that and this week I managed a short morning visit to the local beach, it's only a 35 minute drive but with the return trip it's enough to get some power in that battery.
It was a sunny morning but that coast wind was blowing and the tide was out giving a real cold winter look to the place. Hardly a soul walking on the sands just a couple of guys digging for fishing bait along with the odd dog walker.
I must say this morning we now have some great winter sunshine here in the fens and tho it's coupled with a rather chilly breeze blowing over the flat lands it does make a pleasant change to those grey damp mornings we have had over the last couple of months.
I've been writing a few more poems this week, most are about Ashwell and my childhood and I'll be putting some on here at odd times, you all know me enough by now to realise that I need a good kick up the arse now and then before I show things here on the blog so if it's a week before you see one try to be a little understanding, I just hate the thought of showing a poem and people thinking they are really not that good, but I will share them I promise.
Ok, back to my torch and I need to clean and photograph beads that I'm listing on eBay this evening, I'm glad the mixed sets are selling as I really believe they will be handy for so many types of jewellery and I'll keep listing them.
