too cold for Wusty
Winter arrived last night, leaving a heavy dusting of frost over Cheshire which stubbornly clung to branches and leaves throughout the sub-zero day. Every country scene providing its own ‘Christmascardscape’. The forecast is for snow tonight and tomorrow. We don’t ‘do’ cold very well in Britain - one newspaper headline warns this morning of panic buying of food and fuel - a self-fulfilling prophesy from a paper that should know better.
Instead of rushing out to stockpile bread, milk and petrol I stayed in with the cat (it’s much too cold for him outside) and watched an American college friends drama about the 70s - the redeeming feature of which was the soundtrack - wonderful oldies all the way through. When it finished I had to play Blondie’s ‘One Way or Another’ and Linda Ronstadt’s ‘Just One Look’ (much better than the Hollies’ version) - I’d forgotten how good they were.
