Fun in the snow.

 

My effort at snowman making...  He's called Cyril BTW  Cyril The Snowman.

I went for a walk around Maccesfield forest today.  On the journey there driving along the motorway you could clearly see the cold front that was causing the cold weather.  It was a huge mass of cloud stretching from the north to the south across the eastern skyline. 

Any-ways was a good day, on my way back I stop, closed my eyes and listen......  Nothing, peace and quite at it best.  I thought to myself as i closed my eyes again, I'm warm and dry the sun is peeping through the clouds, I could be anywhere.

My Rab jacket worked okay,  did get abit sweaty on the walk up thought the forest itself so undid the main zip of my 100 weight fleece and about 2/3 of the Rab which worked a treat.  There was a few people using Inov8, mine stayed at home in the warmth.  I used my Meindl boots which I've had for ...hmm ages. 

Oo looky I can see Jodrell bank,  which might close I'm told.  Can also see the Trafford centre too.

The walk back thought the tranquil silence, well other than the muffled swishy/squeak sound that is size 10 boots walking on freshly fallen snow.
