I'm enjoying how my hair and beard are getting gradually frostier this morning. Crunchy!
The sunlight in this valley was very pretty!
So, after about 3 years of being a long way behind, I've finally caught up with my blog, woop woop! As in, I've now written a post about every Ordnance Survey Explorer map area I've visited between starting the blog and now.
It's quite snowy up here! For some reason having snow in my beard and moustache makes me feel like Gandalf.
This lion has a moss hat!
A woolly traffic inspector!
