Yeah, Purbeck was starting to vanish as we left. We were going to walk up to the ferry and round over the rocks, but checked the radar and then cut the corner. Outside lights down now, so settling in for the darts. Off this week, so back to digging if the rain ever stops. -
Ha. Walking typo. Sandbanks was heaving.Sunny when we left home earlier. Drove back in the rain. Now to take the outside lights down. The most wonderful time of the year.

Happy New Year all. Busy down at Cranford Cliffs. Nice to see.
-
Haven't we all
-
Only place anyone has tried to mug me with a butter knife. Incredible place, but totally nuts.
-
Trying to mark out a sloped lawn retaining wall and yew hedge with spray paint. Oh no it doesn't.
-
Very stop, start today. Trying to get outside stuff done, but the rain is winning. Will try again after lunch.
-
Really heavy shower just blew through. Horrible out there.
-
Yep, goes some way to redeeming itself, but not far.
-
Back to the grot again today. So dark at 7:30 and very stodgy over the fields.
-
Yes. We met our pals at Southbourne. Their 6 year had got a new bike, so we were able to get to the Winter gardens in Bournemouth and back, with a quick leftovers picnic on the beach.It was lovely. Busy later too, which was nice to see. Then went back to the in-laws to a frosty reception, as they were finishing lunch. I'd explained that we didn't need any lunch and would get there when we got there, to pick up our house keys. Which we did, as I'm a man of my word.
-
I'm dropping hints that we should be off soon. I just don't get it. We saw them all yesterday.
-
Down at Southbourne this morning. Watery sunshine shimmering on the sea was much better than the gloom up here. Stuck inside at the in-laws now.
-
Merry Christmas all. Here's to an exciting 2024. Edit...Yeah! Got a new goat calendar....
-
Popped into Salisbury again today for some last minute bits and pieces. Walked back to the car at Harnham in the mild drizzle. Ahead of the game this year with the spiced red cabbage, Yorkshire batter and sausage balls done. Roll on Boxing Day when we'll kick them all out early and head to Southbourne for a walk with our pals.

It was moony in Salisbury too. Popped in for a wander and caught the sound of carols drifting out from the Cathedral
-
Mate sent me a pic from Grantham of the nacreous clouds, asking what they were. Nothing here. Got the first Xmas get together out of the way last night, without incident or too many . Also got my first present from our friends, which I had to open. Grinch slippers.

Avoid the A338 at Charlton for a while jy. Blocked both ways.
-
Sparsholt. I'll show you my broad beans.
-
I'll be back at work then. Having my week off first week of Jan, when the excitement has died down but the OH is still off.
-
Decent enough start, but cloudy and breezy now. At least it's not raining. The holiday weekend looks mild and dry enough to get out and avoid family at every opportunity.
-
Really stodgy over in the fields now. Not much drained away during the 'dry spell'. Awful. Just spoke my Mother. Her taxi picks her up in 20 mins to whisk her and her mates off to their flight to Southern Spain for a month.
-
Some chinks of blue above this morning, so already better than yesterday.
