Dreich April

Nice birthday . . . but the weather! Having to contend with the news either, starring an insane right-wing Norwegian killer or, discussing the aftermath ripples of a Scottish killer getting sentenced to life on TV is bad enough, but being unable to go out with a mate to try to take some photos with his new camera for three days is too much.

Redeeming highlights today : Yoga in a nicely heated hall this morning. The prospect of climbing and coffee with friends, in a church put to perfect use.

Couple of snaps today. One obviously from my blue period (about 3 till 3.15pm this afternoon), and one of the beech tree in the garden that still needs a little trim (when it dries and the sun shines). The camera stayed dry.

And, as a good friend and the yoga teacher both would say - Shanti.
