Happy New year to all - it will be a very quiet welcoming, this year.
Thanks, "B" - I never knew that. I just know the French-Canadian spelling, although the pronunciation is closer to the 'touque' spelling that you gave.
Happy new year everyone x
Its snowing again here !!
When I think fo a touque I think of the Queen Mary (wife of George fifth) who wore what was called a touque.[link]
Earby seems well lit tonight - either it's staying alive on New Year's Eve, or the snow is reflecting off their usual lights. Pretty sight.
Oh, Neil, when you are little, and bundled up in snowsuit and overshoes and scarf and mitts and a warm togue (winter hat in my country), the cold just gives you rosy cheeks, and then there's hot chocolate when you come inside.
Interesting piece of physical Geography, or Metrology thanks Helen,. Measnhilw, back at approx 1030 is that Dan braving the weather with the sledge, but I haven't seen Rowan yet,...perhaps He's sensible in thinking it's too cold!... Brr! certainly it would be for me!!!!
Here in Ontario, we would call what I'm looking at in the north west part of this picture a "snow squall", blowing snow from a cloudburst in just one corner of the sky. (16.28)
I hear bird sounds, and pretty sure it is a blackbird warning call. I heard him earlier, too. Before long, the growing light will start him singing.
I hope Rowan is out playing in this white stuff.
Hello all, on a snowy morning, and Happy New Year's Eve. In spite of the kind of year it's been, there is much to be grateful for, and this little window into Marlfield Farm is certainly one of them. Thanks, Dan.
Happy New Year to all! Let's pull for a better one. Hoping to get to Lambwatch in early summer after having to cancel this year.
