Bbrrr.. Just been to fetch the coal in and so glad we have our little stove to sit around on these cold evenings. It has been so cold overnight that some mornings I have found my paint frozen in the studio! But then every day sends more inspiration for another painting.
What were you doing at 6 30 am on 4th December? Martyn and I were on our way to Leeds Airport for him to catch a plane to Belfast for a concert when we got stuck in a snow drift in the pitch dark. Being the professional that he is, a bit of snow was not going to stand in his way especially as he had his mum to help carry the instruments! Leaving the car behind we trudged another mile and a half before being picked up by a sympathetic driver in a sturdy vehicle. We finally arrived at the airport to find that all flights had been cancelled and so there we were stuck all day until the snow was cleared and we could get back to out car. So he never got to Belfast but at least we were able to keep warm and got back home safe and sound that evening.
