A brisk walk yesterday in the Trough of Bowland.
Quite thick snow on the tops of the fells & it was frosty & invigorating.
Lots of photos taken so I picked this one first.
Three good things:
1. Two walks today, one to the PO & back then out with Cathy & Connie round the block.
2. I’m reading a brilliant new book I got for Christmas...I can hardly put it down. Away with the Penguins by Hazel Prior. Try it!
3. I have resisted chocolates twice!!
@lyndamcg Needs must Lynda, I have a new jacket which is a tiny bit too tight round the hips.....the top fits grand but I would like the bottom but to be slightly slacker...I’m working on it!!
What a great landscape shot. I impressed with you resisting chocolate aswell.. I've been off chocolate the last months and even I have managed the odd choccy treat.
....not "away with the fairies"! your book - looks fascinating. I saw a documentary the other day from a cruising boat that went down to Antartica - a huge land! We might have gone on this cruise but it was sold out almost instantly!
fav for the capture of all the layers landscape!
@maggiemae Strangled coincidentally we have just had a programme about penguins & it showed the small type life penguin in the book. You would love the book maggie....an 86 year old going to see the penguins in the Antarctic but much more than that!
@julzmaioro It’s hard to start with until you get unhooked from sweet things...I still have a box of chics opened so I might lapse now & again...once it’s gone though that’s it!
@jgpittenger It only came out in October Jane but we can get it on Kindle here through Amazon. Perhaps not published yet for USA readers...I’m at a loss how it works but when I go to NZ the books in the shops are different to ours in the UK. Keep checking!
Beautiful scene! Of course looked for any book you recommend! It looks like Away with the penguins and How the penguins saved Veronica both by Hazel Prior, were published about the same time. Does the one your reading mention the other?
@loweygrace Well I have just checked it out Lois & as far as I can tell they are the same book. Very odd to have a slightly different title though. As she only wrote the book recently it’s not likely she’s written a sequel. The blurb for each one sounds the same so if possible buy the Away with the Penguins title.

@aecasey Thank you.

I will check out the book, sounds interesting.
