Brrrr....

"Wrap up well," the weather forecaster is saying - too true. The first fire of the year has just been lit, thank goodness for wood-turning neighbours! I have really dried hard word to burn - all the exotic woods you can think of and some of it looking remarkably like reject candle sticks etc. Bu it is blissful. Now all I have to do is read a book and take the relevant notes whilst stoking the flames. Oh, and I have a gin and tonic to keep me company through all of this stresful occupation!

Isn't life wonderful!
