THE BLEAK MIDWINTER....

Just got back from a walkies with Barney, our Retriever and my goodness it`s turned cold. There`s a biting north-east wind blowing and according to the forecast we`re in for the coldest spell of weather for three or four years.   And here we were admiring the spring flowers all coming into bloom , the grass still growing and every sign of global warming in the air.   That`ll teach us.   Anyway, snow could be here over the weekend and the last time we had snow here in our Kentish enclave, I took this photo of one man and his dog battling the elements.   Could be Barney and me over the next few days.   Brrrr.......
