The Owl and The Pussy Cat

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea In a beautiful 'red and white'(!) boat, They took some honey, and plenty of money, Wrapped up in a five pound note. The Owl looked up to the stars above, And sang to a small guitar, 'O lovely Pussy! O Pussy my love, What a beautiful Pussy you are, You are, You are!What a beautiful Pussy you are!'

Oh no, another snow picture..

 Just to show, once again, that I can take pretty pictures of snow. Even though it did mean I had to slither and spin all the way up the hill to work and trudge through snow with buckets of water and bales of hay (bah!). I snapped this very quickly when the farmer took me to a distant location to check that some sheep were ok. I had to walk through this beautiful undisturbed woodland then into and across a field. The sheep were all ok you may be pleased to hear, tho they were a bit unhappy about having to snuffle about in the snow to get at the grass! I don't suppose they were thinking how pretty it was?
I like this image so much I might have a go at drawing it...

whoops, sorry about the funny colours, I was 'playing about and then couldn't get rid of it!

    1. Thanks, I think I've left a comment on your blog, not sure if it disappeared into the ether or is waiting for your approval?

  2. I am glad that you are back blogging Nina. I assume that our Lodges haven't floated away in the rain.

    1. Hi Barry, no they haven't floated away yet, in fact amazingly the river hasn't broken it's banks this year. Perhaps I speak too soon, more rain forecast tomorrow. It's still jolly cold down here, roll on spring.!

  3. Magical picture.
    You can't have too many pictures of snow (and I should know, filling my blog with them . . .)
