5.30am!

I'm rarely up at that unearthly hour but I was padding about making a cuppa at that time this morning .... light mornings are a real problem for me even with blackout vertical blinds and curtains.

The sunrise was beautiful but that was the only glimpse we had of the sun today ... dull with a chilly wind so I'm back to wearing my fleece and sitting by the fire ..... how sad is that!
