A walk around Ardinning Wildlife Reserve this morning. The sky was clear! Frost had got rid of the mud problem. Bright & Still. How different from the recent rain & gloom. Even 8 weeks after I tested positive, the cold made my chest tight & I don’t feel fit.

We had a walk round Ardinning this morning, first time I’ve had boots on since testing positive on the 12 November. 2 and a bit flat miles was enough! Muddy. Grey day with low clouds and a bit of rain. No wind at all!
We had a short walk and a picnic today. First bright day this week. Ardinning was autumnal. Saw what was probably the last dragonflies of the year.
Had a short walk around a couple of hills in Glen Fruin yesterday with Christine & Michael. It has been about 8 weeks since I was on a hill and I got quite puffed on the up.
