Naked Spruce

Chilly 10 miles on the tandem before breakfast and then got on with the secret assignment. 6 hours work and it's crap.
Wasted a good day to be outside too - apart from the fact it is windy and pretty cold.
Got a feeling tomorrow could be crap as well - the local school reorganisation plans are becoming very political. "Sod the kids' education let's make a name for ourselves" is some people's view.
This Balkan spruce is planted in a pot and gets dressed up every Christmas for a couple of weeks (well for the last three years anyway). Eats CO2 for the rest of the year.
Sounds like a fair exchange.
