My wife quote this as we walked through the park. It sticks.
The snow is falling very gently. A ghost tree clasps the real tree like a bridegroom with a bride.

Out for a walk in a very snowy Glasgow. Was surprised to see a few parakeets, at one point flying above through fairly thick snowfall.
Snow- Photos export of live photo to gif was 12.4mb, the best I could do with fireworks was 1.3MB video export & handbrake got to 813kb without much effort.
I’ve been getting fed up with not being able to get out for walks, or when I can they have been pretty busy even before it is light. I like a quiet walk. As it is half term we got up quite early and got to Ardinning around 8. No one else was there! Few more on Flickr
Saw a few of these this morning.
The first snowdrops I’ve seen in 2021 a bit later and a bit muddier due to all the rain but so welcome.

I got a new iPad today
I got a new iPad today. The 8 gen model nothing fancy. Set up in a tick using my phone. I’ve installed a bunch of application, but no work ones. No FirstClass no Teams, Office, no work or glow account in mail.
Hopefully going to be a browsing, reading and blogging machine maybe messing with media a little but no work.
Over lockdown 1 and 2 my Mac has become filled with work. I sit down to do whatever and an email or teams ping. My browsers are full of tabs of teaching. My phone is pretty much the same.
My younger sister, she was in seventh grade, had written a little report about Pablo Neruda. So, I took her school report and turned it into the Wikipedia article on Pablo Neruda.
