The First Day of the New Year!!

Well today the rain actually stopped for a few hours.  I was checking on the internet the state of the weather and we decided to take a walk at about 2pm when it was due to stop raining . 

We donned our coats, scarfs and hats and went along the beach for our walk.

Boy was it windy.  Certainly blew the cobwebs away I'll tell you!!!

  

I took these three shots at the same spot.  The first one is looking straight ahead at the water, the 2nd was turning to my left and the last one (is a wee bit blurry, sorry) was turned to my right.  

Isn't it amazing how different they all are. 

 One thing is for sure it sure was blowy - I was actually quite glad to get home for a nice cuppa coffee :))

I made a nice steak pie for dinner, it was very tasty (apart from the pastry which didn't rise the way I wanted it too). We also had some Christmas pudding and brandy sauce - we didn't have it on Christmas day as Laura and Kevin had brought some chocolate gateau - now who could say no to that, certainly not me, lol. 

Now I am just sitting chilling and watching some telly and I'll maybe do some knitting later on.

Hope you have all had an enjoyable first day of the new year. :))
