Not much point me writing to my MP he rolled out the plan. This current regime is like a runaway steamroller just crashing about randomly. No challenge inside the blue team and the red team were destroyed by looney tunes. Hugs for poor Drs like your daughter and my former profession.
Thank you, I'm looking forward around painting these Mountains.good evening all
was 4.6 this morning
quite a nice day here if a bit breezy, ironically it's probably the kindest new Years Eve we've had for a few years weather wise, there will be no village torchlight walk and ceilidh this year of course
We took our walk before lunch, not quite the same although it was a pleasant walk
I've spent part of the day making LC tiramisu for pudding tomorrow to take over to mum's. Roast beef is already cooked and sliced into nice thick slices ready to go
Thank you for your company along the way in 2020 and I wish everyone a 2021 that is everything we could hope forthis year has been a 'curate's egg' to say the least.
@ianpspurs - thank you for the thoughtful poetry linksyour song link reminded me of another, this
@dunelm - nice tranquil set of willows in the park, I should like to stand on that bridge and look out over the waterand your hoppy new year sketch just really makes me smile
@lindisfel - hope things have thawed by now, take care, I'll admit icy road conditions really worry me
@jjraak - hope your recovery continues smoothly
@Muddy Cyclist - I hope your hearing problem resolves soon. The visitor issue seems to defy logic, we are fortunate in that we have the advantage of distance so it is very quiet here tonight, almost eerily so.
I'm not surprised that your paintings were well recived and I love both the mountain sketches but particularly the second one, very strong

Interesting Ian,Happy New Year and/or celebration of the Naming and Circumcision of Jesus. Cold, dark, frosty and eerily silent here - no noise from planes for a few days now. Swipey was dressed in a 4.7 for New Year's Day. Bit excessive if you ask me. I no longer have any clear idea what bg or weight is optimal nor yet what route leads to those destinations. The hope (resolution?) is to somehow optimise "those things which are requisite and necessary, as well for the body as the soul" but it is always the hope that kills, at least in man made/inspired plans. @Krystyna23040 yesterday sounds wonderful for you, really good news. Similarly @RFSMarch aka Rosington Bear. Last night sounds as if it was good for you (both?) - never mind snacks, soul food/food for the soul without the fancy label @Muddy Cyclist great fbg and hug for more low key NY Eve and Day. @geefull thank you for the link to Notting Hillbillies - almost immediately discerned Knopler which was a big bonus. For all those I missed, as the guys said, float, float on
If that whisky choice was responsible for that wonderful ink and wash drawing from you today I must have some, which was it. That's one very effective piece of art, a really good winter scene.Good morning everyone and a Happy New Year from a water bouncing start to the day in the dark and dangerous north
The wonder wheel of laughter, mirth and slight of hand came in at 5.8 this am - bah! humbug!
Christmas decorations are starting on their long migration back to their spring feeding grounds in the attic. Slowly, just one tree and associated decorations for now, like a blue whale with accompanying parasites in a Terry Gilliamesque cartoon. I am saying nothing.
The choice whisky went down very well - smashing taste - I have it on record that son’s whiskey with the additional ‘e’ - no, not that sort of ‘e’. Eddie Izzard has put his trainers back on - another bunch of marathons - this time on a treadmill. One every day this month.
The bouncing rain seems to have stopped - all quiet on the eastern front.
Today’s art - some snow on Roseberry Topping just down the road. Yellow rice paper. The blue and purple backwash seems to have been turned into an aurora by the colour of the paper. Time for a koffy.
