Another few mild weather days for us

The current http://www.xcweather.co.uk/ weather map has little in the way of surprises, the wind has backed to the West and the Temp is up above freezing.  XC prediction for today is a wet and windy one 
========================================
The Weather Channel  gives us hope for the next few days that its going to remain mild with blustery rain expected at any time 
=============================================
 it was a cold day yesterday and it was well into the evening before it warmed up 
my early morning walk had a very frosty aspect to it 
 the time is a little after 8 in this pic and looking south the sun is hardly making its presence felt yet 
 looking West up the valley towards Bakewell only the traffic is stirring noisily below me on the A6  
 just a hint of the pollution rising up from the traffic in this shot from Tinkersley
 the pond did have a layer of ice at the jetty end 
 no golfers out this morning 
 the trees in the forest on the left over the field are the ones which maybe cut down mentioned in my blog yesterday.  It struck me that it might only be the fir trees which will be felled - - time will tell
 by the river i scared up a heron which flew up onto the field opposite as i passed its early morning fishing exercise
a last view across the river before going back into the warm by the logburner - - -

==================================
Flushed with the success of our Sunday trip to Aldi we went to the slightly closer shop in Chesterfield and as expected it has the same range of products but has the feel of it being a little larger.  I wonder if Aldi were trying to wind up the huge Tesco store when they built it which is within stone throwing distance of it.  Killing 2 birds with one stone after a few purchases form Aldi we raided Tesco to spend some of our Clubcard points before making our getaway back home
================================
Today i want to have a go at removing the pond plants and consigning the recently frosted nasturtiums to the compost bin , so onwards and upwards!
===========================

 with the Temp on the mild side this morning we are following the predictions of the various weather agencies 
the weathercam is looking at a very cloudy sky and rain was falling not long ago.  The forecast is for a windy rainy day and the rain radar is showing more is on its way from the West 
=================================
Enjoy the day
