Christmas is around the corner and there's quite a lot of stuff still to do and I'm really feeling the lack of light.
It's very cold tonight. It feels like the coldest snap in a long time. There was frost on the ground this morning and, out of fear of slipping, I found myself walking down Heartbreak Hill like a Chinese woman back in the days when foot binding was a popular method of keeping the female population in their place. I looked quite ridiculous but at least I kept upright
Today and tomorrow are good times to see meteor showers called Geminads. Not quite sure what they are but a quick Google tells me these showers come from a certain part of the sky and were first observed during the C19th. They were left behind by the asteroid 3200 Phaethon. Wonder if I'll get to see any?
