Feeling a lot better after the cold last week and no ill effects from the flu jab on Friday. We all enjoyed the Strictly final last night, especially after the latest announcement regarding tier 4 which has come out of nowhere and the narrowing of options for Christmas gatherings.
Today we had some lovely walks in the sunshine after the rain which seemed endless yesterday. The shadows are certainly long as we are on the cusp of the winter solstice but the birds were singing and chirping away. We saw a flock of long tailed tits in the trees and spotted at least two nuthatches and I was pleased to see several arrive in ourgarden later in the mornning. It doesn't look like much of a picture but I tried to get something for the record.
Maria and Joseph were being photographed for the cover of Sandra's book about vegan food and children and it meant we were able to enjoy an afternoon with her and Joy. Sadly, it was just me out by the fire under the gazebo but I enjoyed it. Maria and Joseph came out for a few minutes but the sunshine was very pleasant on the top patio which proved a greater draw than the fire. I'm hoping for better over proper Christmas.
