Yesterday the beginning of a long weekend was just awful weather It was bitterly cold and wet at times, the snow is back on the hills ,and the fire was on again in the daytime. In a break in the weather I nipped out the front and took a photo of our cherry tree before it was ruined We cut it back heaps last year , yet it still looks like a huge waterfall tin the front garden it must be about 12 foot high and nearly the same wide .
