Winter winds and wood chopping



Yesterday as the weather threatened to turn wintery I had to get over to Grafham Water to deliver fishing GWFFA club newsletter, so took the dogs for a walk around the reservoir. We started out in clear bright conditions, but returned to the car with grey skies, wind and some flakes of snow.

When we got home high priority was to get logs in - just incase we were sowed in. I still have an enormous pile of green logs for splitting and stacking. Old stocks of logs are running low - I always forget that I seem to use more wood after christmas than before. We had pheasant hot pot - supper winter food - I trade trout for pheasant and we live very well.

Finished the day preparing my flyfishing lines for next season - having seen a the film A River Runs Through It - I am looking forwards to the next season.
