What a year!

One year since lockdown here in the UK, and we're just beginning to see cautious signs of recovery.

Like so many other people I will be able to meet with members of my family I haven't seen indoors, outdoors, or anywhere other than on a Zoom call, since before Christmas.

Like everyone else I feel so emotional about seeing those I've missed and love so much. Wishing you the same joy now, or very soon, wherever you live in the world.

Here are some shots I've taken in and around our village. These and similar scenes have filled me with hope and happiness throughout lockdown, and I hope they do the same for you.

With my love to you for a better and more hopeful month, with good health, good friends, and great books.
