A feather

Well I was supposed to be driving up to see my dad for the weekend but the weather forecast looked awful for Friday evening - snow down the whole east coast of England - and as I didn't want to get stuck in a snow drift with 2 children in the car for company, I thought it best to postpone the journey north until Saturday.

For my blip, the original plan has been to stop at one of the garages on the A1 and take some pictures of the traffic, but this didn't happen. Instead, here's an emergency blip of a peacock's feather taken on the afternoon as a 'just in case' picture.
