Winter has come

 

Today's been the first really cold day of the year documenting down at Dow's, (noticeably colder in the old 1859 building than out) so it's on with a neck warmer an an old University of St Andrews beanie, not to mention a battered old gilet.

Most definitely not stylish, especially when accompanied by blue examination gloves, but then being warm is better than looking cool. 

Of course in the last two years, the cold weather coincided with pandemic lockdowns and closures meaning I'd forgotten just quite what a  problem it could be, so today's chilliness came as an unwelcome surprise...
