Monday 28th 40-46F, cool but bright and clear start. Walked to the lanes. A very large bird of prey was completely spoiling the sense of scale and proportion of the landscape. What looked like a buzzard was wheeling over it. Making it look even larger. The larger bird became fed up with the attention and sailed off across the countryside. This excitement was followed by an early ride to the shops. The sky is becoming more cloudy now. Only 7 miles.Tuesday 29th 33-46F Frost on the grass. Bright and cloud free for a change. Walked to the lanes. It was a mostly sunny day.
Wednesday 30th 29-45F, calm and bright. With a crisp, white frost on the grass, surfaces and hedges. Though it didn't feel particularly cold on my walk to the lanes. Except when vehicles passed and provided some unwanted wind chill. The ponds on the fields are reducing steadily. The wind turbines were standing still. Not ideal when the country needs the electricity for heating.
Thursday 31st, 39-46F, rather cloudy. Only a little sun promised for today but a warmer start. The sun did manage to break through but it was going to be a struggle given the amount of cloud. Five airliners went over towing vapour trails. All coming from the same direction but only slightly staggered in timing. Whatever happened to video conferencing?
