WINTER VEGETABLES

The hard frosts have eased a bit this weekend making it easier to harvest winter vegetables.
 It is generally acknowledged that frost improves the flavour of many vegetables, like parsnips, making them taste sweeter, but it is hard work digging and pulling  them out of the frozen ground.

LONDON,TRAFALGAR SQUARE, CHRISTMAS

Every year Norway donates a magnificent Christmas tree to London. It can be seen in Trafalgar Square and looks especially lovely with a fall of snow or in the evening just as it is getting dark.

Freezing Temperatures

The temperature has been well below freezing for several nights getting down to minus 8 in some places. The skies have been clear allowing dramatic views of the moon and stars.
This is hard work for people who work outside like this shepherd.

Christmas Cards

It is time to start writing Christmas Cards .I love receiving Christmas cards  the old fashioned way in the post. Reading through them gives me time to remember old friends and memories even though we not have met for years.

My cards go into a post box in an ancient wall just like this one on Castle Hill ,Cambridge.My favourite pub,The Castle ,is next door.

Winter Weather and the Whippet Bus

 

Winter Weather




A bus company whose livery is bright blue travels around the country side in Cambridgeshire connecting small towns such as St Ives and Huntingdon to Cambridge City .This bus run by Whippet is a lifeline to many people especially in  the winter.It is the only bus that goes to the main railway station and Addenbrookes Hospital from the north. The council is threatening to close it down.
