Most of the snow had gone during the slow thaw during the night, but still a few little patches left, and ice still on the loch.  My picture looks almost B&W but is not so.

On line church service this morning, a phone call from a country dancing friend later, and then one from my sister.  made lentil soup. Lovely lunch cooked by the HG, and then a short walk at the loch.  It was not too pleasant, a lot of people about, and damp and dreich, but at least we got some fresh air, which we badly needed.
