Wild ponies

Don't be fooled by the blue sky and sunshine - the wind today has been freezing!  Bramble and Truffle were cosy enough in their fleecy coats, but all the dog-walkers we met commented on the Arctic wind.

These ponies living out on the moor presumably have grown thick winter coats to protect them in all weathers. We pass them on our way to the forest for our walk.

I noticed P's car in the parking area at the start of the track and hoped we might bump into her and the bold Minty, but no such luck.

I watched the proceedings at the Cenotaph this morning and as always found it very moving, especially hearing the accounts of individual veterans. Lest we forget.
