My Year in Photos – January 26th – “Red sky at night”
This shot was taken as I walked through Chiswick this evening, at the start of what turned out to be a really nice sunset. Apart from having to explain the “Red sky at night” concept to my American colleague Milly a few weeks ago, sunsets always remind me of these wise words from my friend Ali:
“Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight
Red sky at morning, shepherd’s warning
Minced lamb and mashed potato, shepherd’s pie”
I think we can all take something from that, can’t we? :D
My Year in Photos – January 6th – “Twelfth Night”
As predicted by the red sky yesterday morning, last night saw snow covering much of the country, with Reading being especially well doused. Despite having to stay at work late, I managed to make my way down the M4 reasonably easily and by the time we awoke this morning there was a good 6 inches of snow covering our area.
Later in the afternoon we all went for a walk to the park down our road, which is where this photo of Sara and Robert was taken. There was some pretty impressive snowman-building going on, including one which was at least 7ft tall.
My Year in Photos – January 4th – “The long walk to fr.. work”
What else could it possibly be today, but a photo taken on my way in to work – more specifically, the long walk from where I park my car to the Tamar offices. On the day when about half of the UK are making their way slowly back to work after a nice long Christmas, I actually felt a lot less depressed than I usually do on this day, as I didn’t really take much time off over the festive season.
With January looking like it’s going to be just as busy, I’m hoping that the icy conditions we’re due in the next few weeks will spread the festive feeling a little bit longer. Either that or produce a few more snow days!
