Woken by the silence of the snow

Visible to anyone in the world

(or was it the fridge?)

I recall this from being a boy growing up in Northumberland - the silence of the night after a snowfal, waking to an eerie glow from outside, and pushing back the curtain to see the garden transformed.

The snow started to fall a few hours ago. An icing on the South Downs. I wish I was back in Northumberland.

I take the opportunity to study. This is the only time I'll get anything done. Tomorrow, if school is off I'll be off too. Off onto a hill with some body boards I turned into sledges in January.

I'll show you the set of 'How to' photos. A simple process reqiring some bamboo canes and duct-tape.
