I do hope that Forumistas will be safe during the coming Polar Vortex this week. Don't do unnecessary journeys etc. I've been telling my elderly mother this everyday. She's nearly 92 and still drives! Which I do worry about!
Apart from that, lovely sunny day here today. Going to an indian in a nearby village called Lindfield, wioth a couple of friends, where they do a lovely buffet!Don’t cry for me

Unfortunately my camera battery had run out so had to use phone, which wasn't easy, especially with low sun.
Can anybody identify from this blurry image?I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.
