Frosty site

[Robert_Brenchley]

I've had several requests to post some pics I took round my site yesterday on this board, so here they are.

Beautiful!  So misty and frost...I half expect Sherlock Holmes to start walking along the lane! 

[Derekthefox]

In the bleak midwinter springs to mind ...

[Robert_Brenchley]

That lane appears to be just as the roads round Birmingham were in Holmes' day, except that it takes less traffic; they would have had a lot less grass and more mud. It's even got the old passing places still there from 1840.

I like these pictures very much.  I think I will use picture number 2 as my wallpaper for a while if it's ok with you, Robert?  Thanks

Of course it's OK; if you want a bigger version send me your Email. The one thing I can't recapture is the discomfort of spending hours working inside in those conditions!

Fab photos - I just love the one with the 'secret garden' gate.   :)

Lovely photos Robert.  I like the one of the pool best.

[Robert_Brenchley]

The gate is actually mine, seen from the inside. The pool is just outside the site, in a patch of woodland which is leased to the Botanical Gardens. They took over part of the gardens in rto Sixties, while the Council was shilly-shallying over taking them on, threw all the tenants off, used part of it as the TV garden for a while in the Seventies, and apart from that never did anything with the land.
