It has been another stunning day, that's two in a row and definitely a record this winter! I had a short wander and took a couple of shots. The flowers are going to struggle the next few days with the frost.
With the clear sky you could see dozens of vapour trails from airplanes we obviously live on a busy route. There was a sprinkling of snow on some of the lower fells and a bit more on the Old Man. I think there will be more tonight. In fact, just been outside for a log of wood and there are some tiny snowflakes in the air!
