Time to put the paints away. Even with a good daylight lamp, I've totally lost the light - not good when doing some fairly delicate shading on a portrait.

Almost time.

But I have a tortie telling me that it's cuddle time.

I am lost

I never admit to being lost, I will if pushed admit to not knowing quite exactly where I am, but I generally know enough to get to where I do know where I am & hence back to where I want to be.

We had a colourful sunrise .
View attachment 570355

Now just grey .
A good frost here .
First cuppa went down well .
I foresee a lazy day

Glimpsed ours this morning & it was a deep angry red. We've barely had any snow but it is cold.

Yep, beautiful sunrise here about ¼ an hour ago, then it vanished!

Ours disappeared quickly too.

My fifth columnist activities are beginning to bear fruit. A neighbour phoned to ask me if I would like a chicken and leek pie delivering, I spent time converting this person.
First it was the pies then it was the roast beef and Yorkshire puddings.

Been out having fun, riding my recumbent in the snow.

Billy Connolly did a routine about pensioners and staying warm, all related to some of the strange devices advertised in the small catalogues stuffed in mid brow newspapers. I will find it if I can.
Not that I am accusing you of being a pensioner Andy, its just the lengths people will go to in staying warm indoors.

I’m always amused by those who say their house isn’t warm enough. You often find out they aren’t wearing a jumper...

I have made orange chicken using riced cauliflower and Asian vegetables, and little fried chickenbits.

I like the sound of that. My 'soon to arrive' chicken roast has got stuffing and pigs in blankets.... not quite so esoteric
