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!

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