It’s very cold, and there has been a frost, but it is lovely! The last of autumn I think before we skate into winter, and the sky is blue, the pale but pretty winter blue.the trees are still with no wind to take the last orange and gold leaves, and the sun is shining! it is a pale and silvery sun, but it is definitely the sun!
We have no particular plans for today, but we think we might go out, armed with our cameras.to the little village of Puxton, quite near here. We want to visit because there is a church dating back to the 1200’s, St Saviour’s church. Like Pisa it has a leaning tower and although it is no longer in use as a church, it has a listed status of grade 1, that means it has to be looked after and not altered, and any repairs or conservation is very strictly controlled. I hope it is open and we can go inside because it has box pews… literally boxed-in pews so families could sit separately from others… it might have been warmer too, to have wooden partitions round you!
So breakfasted and wrapped up war, off we go!
