Shooting the waves

It's traditional

The traditional brisk walk along the seafront on Boxing Day is usually thoroughly enjoyable; this year the weather was far too wet and blustery to venture out, so here's one from last year.

Not a white one

It's a beautiful Christmas Day by the seaside with bright blue skies and sunshine. Temperatures are much warmer than they have been lately; all in all, a lovely day for the middle of winter.

Another sort of tree

Icy

Much of the snow has now turned to ice - it's beginning to melt but side roads and pavements are still covered with a thick slippery layer making it difficult to get out and about.

The sea in winter. Well, I like everything about living at the seaside in winter apart from the wind which never seems to stop.

Brighton & Hove has a superb library service offering book borrowing and computer access for free - there's a small charge for borrowing CDs, DVDs and audio books. I listen to a lot of audio books (they're great for knitting to) over the course of a year and I borrowed this lot from Hove Library today using my audio-visual subscription card - the card is an absolute bargain at £30 a year (half price for over 60s like me) and I can take out up to 8 items at the same time. Now, which one shall I start listening to first....

LYS

Christmas window display at Cocoon, George Street, Hove. I do love having an LYS a few minutes walk from where I live (for those of you not into KnitSpeak, LYS = Local Yarn Shop).

The house is in a fabulous position on the corner of King's Esplanade and Medina Terrace. It's being restored by David Gilmour who bought the property earlier this year.
