There wasn't a breath of wind, which helped

So the mast in the background,  is that Whaley moor?

Judging by the angle relative to the cricket pitch, I think it mus be this mast.

Very nice 360. Love the circle of trees.

Yes, I'm not sure what that encloses. Not visible from ground level.

There are some seriously narrow roads around that mast.

Yes, lots of single-track roads with occasional passing places.

Thanks mate. No snow to speak of at home, but a short journey up the hill and things were quite different.

Well the Mini3Pro did all the work there. Shot in JRAW using the Panorama function. Then just upload it to SkyPixel.  No editing necessary.

Same here.
Gonna play in the snow soon.
It will be gone tomorrow.

I'm sure the kids will enjoy it (and the parents)

Nice sphere!

What an amazing sphere Mr. B.    I bet that "white pitch" would be a bit hard to play cricket on.

Big kid at heart?

My pleasure Mr. B.  

Too bad you didn't get that same amount of snow in your valley but at least it was only a short distance away.

I'm not sorry it almost passed us by.  The dusting we had melted away in 24 hours.

Must have had a high water content in it and/or the sun helped to melt it quickly.

Temperatures were only just below zero, and then we've had two or three really sunny days.  No trace remains here, but there's still snow on the hills of course.

That's way too cold for me but at least you had a few sunny days thrown in there.

Even though it's clouded over this afternoon, the temperatures are still mild (+4 Celcius)

+4 is mild?  You must enjoy the cooler weather.  Guess I'm just used to warmer weather.  I'm not going to tease you with the temps here today.

Better not!  We've had words about that before

Exactly why I didn't post the temp.  Hopefully, Spring season is not too far away for you and things will warm up and bring on the Spring growth and colors.

Yes, the days are lengthening noticeably, and we're starting to feel positive about the impending season again.

A good workout

Today I worked at the school garden, even better workout.

Voluntary work, was it?

Absolutely.
One teacher has one of those allotments. It's quite big. And she always takes the class with her on Wednesday (during the season) and sometimes asks parents to jump in with big jobs, like today.
