Hospital car park rip offs! & The man flu subsides

The express has a headline close to my heart as it is scandalous how much hospitals charge to park.  If i visit Chesterfield hospital i usually go by vehicle and will park nearly a mile away sometimes to avoid paying! I think the banner headline is funny though about "is your winter cold a warning that your'e allergic to Christmas" 
=====================
Dont forget its the winter solstice today  with the earth in the Northern hemisphere being at it furthest point away from the sun at 04:49.  Today therefore will be the shortest from the point of daylight hours. 
================================== 
This murmuration of starlings fronts the Independent's article about old birds dont go grey with age there's also an explanation of why the Green Tree Frog turns blue when it dies! 
===========================================

These 2 http://www.xcweather.co.uk/ charts show what the current weather is like, the one above is where its raining right now the band of rain in the North is expected to move South during the course of the day 

this one shows the strength of the wind  bigger arrow, greater strength 
===================
 quite warm at 12.5c this morning but its going to feel colder out in the wind especially when we get the rain 
just enough light on the weathercam pic to show its a fully clouded sky and only a matter of time before we get the rain.  
here's a nice pic from the weathercam just before 17:00 yesterday the sun has long gone form the valley but its effect can be seen over the valley rim. 
===========================
The debilitating bout of man flu was at its height yesterday around Lunchtime and the Aldi "Max strength cold and flu" sachets were being mixed and consumed regularly!  Around 15:00 just as i was finishing my efforts on the book i had a sneezing series of about 6 or 7 sneezes and within 5 minutes the man flu was subsiding!!!!!  Still a little sniffly now I intend to walk the White Edge again to our Lunch at The Grouse unless its pouring with rain - - -

Enjoy the day
