A year in pictures

The following 12 pictures are the ones picked out for our 2008 calendar. We've had them printed by Photobox, and wrapped them up ready to give out as Christmas presents. We did some last year, and they proved so popular that this year we ordered 32 of them!

Brrrr.....

Well Tuesday was cold, but today even worse! It's times like this when living out in the countryside has it's problems. The roads become very slippery so getting in to Bury takes twice as long. And then there's having to defrost the car in the evening before heading home again :-(

Still, the BBC monthly outlook is saying that there may be some snow on Christmas Eve. I do hope so!! None before then though as we have to get up to the Lake District. After that then all snow is welcome, particularly if we get stuck in our cottage until spring!!
