Full Metal Wheelbarrow

I went for a walk out to Staunton Harold Reservoir today. It was nice and bright and sunny, albeit still windy and cold.

I was rather saddened by the sight of dogs which had obviously been swimming in the reservoir. I don't blame the dogs, they can't read the zonking great signs that say not to swim in the water or drink it or let your pets do likewise (because it's full of blue green algae which will make you and them ill), but I would have hoped their owner could. Apparently not. Poor dogs.

At least there were plenty of snowdrops to cheer me up


In other news, I've now knitted both front sections of my cardi and have started the first sleeve. I thought I'd be slow at this after not touching knitting needle in anger for several years, but it's getting done remarkably rapidly.
