Frozen

That's the puddle she normally jumps in. The frozen, unstable top layer alarmed her enough to keep well clear today.

The lovely thing about Saturdays with no plans is that at the last minute you can make plans. Went to the gym with Clare, half an hour of perfect swimming in the sunshine. It's been a while since I have swam in the daylight, it felt like being on holiday. Home to meet my mum and we wandered along for a nice spot of lunch. A very January lunch, lots of veg and wholesome ness, with tea and coffee. And almond and lemon cake. All v good, and some light holiday planning.

Home for, oh my god, traitors! Last night - utterly brutal throughout and totally brilliant. What is the job you apply for to be part of making that programme? Love it.
