"Old Christmas Day. Last night the slip of the Holy Thorn... grafted for me last spring in the Vicarage lower garden blossomed in an intense frost." Frances Kilvert, 1879 (Herefordshire)


Gorgeously cold and crisply blue-skied today...


...snow and ice still lingering...


...and then a gloriously red sky to finish the day.
