Cold day

By many standards not so cold but with so little heat in an already cold house it was perishing first thing venturing from bed under double duvets.

The Casentino is looking more wintry than the Highlsnds at present and way behind Oxford with its catkins all ablaze.

We went down to Poppi for supplies and saw an over- wintering Woodcock from Belorussia poking at the frozen ground.

I did a bit of clearing outside later as the Boss worked at references and peer reviews. Later a big squash and chickpea curry. We are taking the new guidance on fibre intake with some seriousness.
