In the Oxfam bookshop, Stockbridge

I fiddled with the various extractor fans in the flat today. Cleaning the filters made them sound less like Hercules transport planes rumbling down the runway.

Thick freezing fog outside. Later it lifted a little and I stopped in at the Oxfam shop. Had a nice chat with a guy who has a place in Oldhamstocks - pronounced Old-ham- stocks not Oldham-stocks - (just in case you wanted to know).

This beautiful cover caught my eye and I had to buy the book - one of the New Naturalist series.  Strangely I had forgotten my iPhone when walking through the Botanics so this will have to do.
