Out for a ramble this morning, on a super winter's day: bright sunshine throughout, and hardly a breath of wind.  This is Betty's Reading Room, a cosy place to sit (with a fire) and read, near Tingwall ferry terminal.

I bought myself a new winter hat this morning.  I usually wear one that is actually my husband's as it seems to be the warmest we have with a fleece lining.  I wasn't sure whether to go for one with or without a bobble, fearing the bobble might be destabilising in the wind (seriously), but when I thought about it again, I realised that this is a bit ridiculous, so went for a bobble.  Time will tell...
