  • How do I know its winter-time?

    ...because I've just put live (eurosport) ski-jumping on the tele!!!

    Did you know its snowing in Kuusamo, Finland? There's something about watching downhill ski-ing or ski-jumpind that assures me it is indeed winter!

    What convinces you?
    To see a world in a grain of sand
    And a heaven in a wild flower

            22 days to shortest day, then we can all start saying, 'the days are drawing out'.

                Surely ski-ing is only real if commentated on by David Vine and with the 'Ski Sunday' theme?

                For me, 'winter' is when your nose gets cold, no matter how well the rest of you is wrapped up!
                I was feeling part of the scenery
                I walked right out of the machinery
                My heart going boom boom boom
                "Hey" he said "Grab your things
                I've come to take you home."

                          Winter = Robins!

                          Whichever customer's garden I'm in, there's one lurking to see what I'll turn up...

                          ...there's one on the stable doorstep when I'm mucking out...

                          ...there's one on the fence when I'm digging my veg beds...

                          ...and there's one nicking the corn that the chooks haven't found in the long grass...

                          (There were two fighting at the stables the other day - what a commotion from something so small!)

                          I know they're vicious little blighters, but they're so cute

                            We've got Robins sleeping in the stables too, they fight like mad. I know it's winter when I don't want to get out of bed in the morning - it's been winter all year then
