Dorothy's place.

Tucked up inside the house today but I did venture out this morning to take a couple of photos.

Dorothy's thatched cottage down the lane looked particularly sweet in the snow.

Lydia has gone back home after her two night stay. If she keeps taking the painkillers every four hours she is fine.
Her mum unfortunately slipped in the snow yesterday on a walk in the Lake District & has a Colles fracture of her wrist.
Very unfortunate first as it cut short their lovely weekend with friends & second because she is self employed & will miss her pay.
Loads of patients waiting & not possible to treat them. It is her left wrist so after a few weeks hopefully she may be able to do her podiatry treatment.

Three good things:
1. A&E department.
2. The snow is melting tonight.
3. A glass of NZ white.

Pleased to hear it was a glassfor nz white though looks more like warming red kinda day. Hope the patients heal quick. Gorgeous shot of this snowy house.

Nice shot Pat ,such a sweet cottage . the snow has turned to sleet and rain here and but pretty cold and miserable with it !!!

[Loopy-Lou]

So pretty, wonderful winter capture

[Bep]

Dorothy's snow covered cottage looks very romantic.

[Helen K]

What a sweet cottage! A delightfully wintry scene!

[Maggiemae]

I suppose the snow sticks to the thatch more than an iron or tile roof! This is such a picturesque cottage and I can imagine the inside where there would be a bright fire burning in several rooms! Pinot gris?

Dorothy has a very welcoming home and you captured this very well.

[Pat Knowles]

@maggiemae Oyster Bay Sauvignon Blanc. Plenty left in the fridge....fancied a change from G&T.

What a fabulous cottage, it looks gorgeous with a dusting of snow.
Sorry to hear Lydia's Mum has a fractured wrist. I do sympathise.

[ShazzyM]

Lovely capture

[Phil Howcroft]

looks rather grand and pretty in the snow pat

[KWind]

It's lovely! Thatched roofs are so full of character.

[Dianne]

This is just lovely. What a pity that a fall in the snow has resulted in a fracture.

[Gena Pegg]

SO charming.....the contrast of snow and fall color in the tree is lovely. Sorry to hear about the injury and resulting loss of work.

[Jane Pittenger]

Sweet

[Margo]

very pretty place

[Hazel]

Like the horizontals. Yes, a good thing, a glass of NZ white.

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Lovely capture and the snow makes it so pretty. Be careful out there, don't go slipping up.

[Judith Greenwood]

Oh no what a nuisance! I slipped and slid a bit yesterday - very deceptive as it didn't look especially icy. Maybe Cathy will be able to work with her fingers once it's less painful.

[Steve Angell]

I hope all is well..I slipped outside the house in ice the other night...luckily I stayed mostly on my feet...!

Nice looking cottage :)
