A cracking day for a walk with clear blue sky and sunshine.
The light misty stuff seen in town did eventually rise into light fluffy clouds here.
The ground was frozen in places and Taylor Lane was an ice rink here and there.
The sleepover went really will with the 3 ladies on lie lows in the lounge running out of puff at a little after 1am.
After Soil Hill I sat in the garden before we all went down the park for some "football".
My stint in goals was a poor do with each of ladies scoring a goal... but they don't play fair.. they just don't!!
The garden sit out was good with 2 skeins of Pinkies going over west-ish and Buzzards calling and seen a good few times.
Three Buzzards were see at one time high over Oats Royd drifting SE.
