It's been a while
The snow gear had shrunk since the last time it was needed.
So an upgrade to Bernie-style was called for.
Frosty morning walk
A frosty morning walk to Castle Meadows just so that Yogi could have a pint of his favourite beverage. Chilled.
It was lovely he said.
The path is muddy and bumpy
The path between Wallingford and Benson was resurfaced. The the river flooded over into the water meadows (like it is supposed to). Then the water retreated. Now the lovely path is muddy and bumpy again. It cycles.
Lockdown Sports
Ten months after the UK locked down for COVID and we're running out of indoor sports.
In the vague chance that you stumble upon this, please please do not try this at home. Or at the shops. Or at the park. And definitely not at school.
Shed. Done (ish)
The shed is done. Not done done. Just done.
The boxes face west, so hopefully won't be too hot, nor too cold. But if they're successful in attracting residents then I might not be able to use the door.
On reflection maybe I didn't plan that bit too well.
A two coffee day
Today was a two coffee day. Recently many days have been like this. I'm blamng a COVID-restrictions induced brain-fog.
Or maybe just a love of coffee.
Woodinville Bear!
Woodinville spent the holidays with S&D next door. He said he'd had a wonderful time, but that he was ready to come home to the front garden.
While he was away his hair has grown. "I'll need it cut soon" he said.
Avocado Challenge
F, getting ready to challenge Toni to an Avocado growing competition. Results in 5 years.
Winter sun blues
The sun was trying, but only succeeded in making the day feel like a Harry Potter scene. Or an album cover for something Sean would like us to listen to.
It finally managed to drive the clouds away, for some afternoon Winter Blue.
Thames Path Disappearing
Between Benson and Wallingford. You can see the old fence that used to be the field boundary almost in the river.
Exercise
My physically-distanced exercise today was collecting the canoe that Tony borrowed during the flood, and wheeling it along the river bank. I would rather have paddled it, and based on the number of people also walking along the path, the water option would probably have been safer.
