a postcard from the sunny south west
They say there is snow in many of the higher parts of the UK today, with up to 30 cm in some places. All the more strange that I've spent the last few days wandering along one of the coastal footpaths in bright, warm sunshine.
It's still too early in the season for there to be many people around although the beaches had a light sprinkling of well-wrapped folk, including a few surfers catching the early waves.
We've been mainly on the southern coastline of Cornwall, quiet villages still preparing for tourists with many a fresh lick of paint for the new season.
Before we returned, we headed north along a short section of the Atlantic coastline, similarly sunny before the only splash of rain as we finally jumped back into the car for the homeward journey.
So hardly a thought of snow and cold around here, with blue skies again this morning and thoughts as fresh as my still valid car park ticket for Padstow.

Oh, how I miss that part of the world. I may have to visit soon.
The weather has been weird - it's cold, grey and drizzly here!
Imaginography Indeed good to be away from it all for a few days. Not even a phone signal, but plenty of sunshine.
Looks beautiful there! We actually got snow! :)
Nikki-ann This was part of the very sunny SW Coast Path.
