Far from being dreadful I found my walk today out in the cold, crisp
winter sunshine to be most invigorating. I defy anyone to disagree...


I won't disagree that you felt invigorated (how could I?) but
personally I prefer walking easily rather than tensed and hunched.
Warmth puts smile on peoples faces, relaxes them and is overall a good
thing. Well, up to a wet-bulb temperature of about 20°C it is.

I saw a lot of happy smiling faces walking in Exeter this lunchtime, I tell
you it was very pleasant in that sunshine and dry air. Cold is no problem if
you are fit and well and have the right clothing. In summer I wear tee-shirt
and shorts, in winter I wear layers depending on wind chill, today a simple
fleece and shirt was fine as there was hardly any wind with the temperature
around zero. The worst weather I find for walking in is heavy driving
horizontal rain, no matter what the temperature, then you really are
"hunched up".

Each to their own, you can't change the weather, but you can always make the
most of what's on offer!

Already (-9) at Sennybridge in Wales @ 18:00


I wish there could be more done for the elderly, homeless and sick
during this exceptional cold spell in England & Wales.


Give everyone special warm clothing coupons. Must be spent on garments woven
from the fleece of British sheep.
Saveon on CO2 and help the hill farmers in one go.

Yes, what a shame the Atlantic is back. Yesterday was stunning and
beautiful.

You know what... if everyone resisted the urge to respond to what
appears to be a 'trolling' attempt or added the offending person to a
kill file then they'll soon get bored and disappear to another
group... 'tis the way of the Internet...
