I took this one while waiting for @shepherdmanswife to manipulate her tripod and macro lens in order to take a much better shot of these catkins. It was a cold day but I didn’t mind waiting – I knew that we would shortly be passing the pub, with its open fire. I successfully persuaded @shepherdmanswife to pop in for a spot of lunch. Well, it would have been rude to walk by without saying hello to the landlord, wouldn’t it?
