icy day expedition.

The Amber alert has been reduced to Yellow, some of the snow has gone but it is bitterly cold.
We decided not to go to town yesterday, so went this morning...by bus.  The frozen slush in our village was slippery and where it had been cleared off it was icy!  The 400 foot altitude difference between home and Ayr was evident...no gloves needed in Ayr and almost no hat needed either!

Even in the bus you could feel it getting colder as we travelled home.

After a quick lunch ,time for today's walk...





 Goat Fell on Arran is completely snow covered
 Tonight's snow on the way?
Back to watch the penultimate stage of the Tour Down Under on television, looking at the parched countryside and vineyards...and thinking of friends there.

Now I'm off to a warm studio for some printing....

I'd still appreciate some snow...
All we've had in Brittany is storms and torrential rain
And Paris was wet this morning too! The Seine is flooding and they've closed some of the riverside walkways...
Climate change :(
