Spindle Explosion

The weather forecast is spot on again today... after a gentle if chilly morning the winds have picked up and here comes the sideways rain. It really does feel as if Britain's weather system has changed dramatically - and it might have, although one or two years isn't enough to be certain... climate chaos is exactly that; there's no sure prediction to be made yet.

Anyway, we got a walk in before it all went sideways and now Janet's making marmalade while she still has a working kitchen - yup, the time is coming when that kitchen wall comes down! Careful what you wish for... you might just get it! lol. This spindle tree was remarkable.

I had considered maybe getting Morrigan out for a ride this morning, but with the brisk cold wind I suddenly realised I'd broken my heated gloves controller last winter and hadn't repaired them! That job is now planned for next week and the bits ordered... a fiver's worth of plug ends or sixty quid for a new controller... guess which way I went.
