It is half term this week (and next!) and the weather was glorious today, so Connie and I (and the boys of course) went up to Gummer’s How to take advantage of the late afternoon sunshine. The wind was cool and it certainly felt a lot colder than it has of late, no doubt soon bringing the predicted snow to the high ground.
