[Photos] Late October, November

[marshtide]

As previously reported, it snowed in October. About half a week later the world still looked like this:



This photo was not taken when I was out cycling. I am slightly too fond of my own neck.

Coming home from school, about a week ago:





These are objectively terrible photographs, but there's something about their particular kind of crap, blurred, dark and grainy that I find quite charming.

Sorry.

Out on my bike today, with the snow having left:









That chimney in the background is a bizarrely big part of my impression of this town. You can see it from more or less everywhere I usually go.





& now it's, you know, November. So I'm planning on reading Sent i november and feeling vaguely melancholy, mostly.

And I guess making the Christmas things that'll benefit from sitting around in a cupboard for a couple of months. (I'm making mincemeat and then mince pies, as the single British contribution to Christmas. I've never actually made mincemeat before, so we'll see how that goes.)

Well, you know, the town is actually kind of hideous and soul-destroying, but the surroundings are great. *laughs*

Mm, it's really not a landscape you can find much of in the UK.
