I think I’m…

My Year in Photos – December 27th – “Pet shops are dangerous places”

Posted on December 28, 2010February 24, 2011 by Henry Elliss

My Year in Photos – December 27th – "Pet shops are dangerous places", originally uploaded by henweb. We went in to “Pets at Home” today, as part of a medium-scale sales shopping trip.

My Year in Photos – December 26th – "Like a sledge-runner", originally uploaded by henweb. The highlight of my Boxing Day today was sledging on the hill next to my parents’ house – a rather small hill it has to be said, but it was perfect for sledging with a two-year-old in your lap! Robert…

My Year in Photos – December 24th – "Twas the night before Christmas…", originally uploaded by henweb. As with last year (due to a clerical error of sorts) we spent this Christmas at my parents’ house in Somerset – a very lovely place to spend Christmas I should add.

Posted on December 23, 2010February 24, 2011 by Henry Elliss

My Year in Photos – December 23rd – "It’s like an ice-rink!", originally uploaded by henweb. Despite most of the snow having melted here in Reading, our street seems to have escaped the big un-freeze, remaining a total ice rink. I was packing the car this evening for our cross-country Christmas trip, and almost broke…

My Year in Photos – December 22nd – "Traffic AGAIN", originally uploaded by henweb. Despite Wednesday being a very busy day at work, I’m once again resorting to a photo taken in the traffic on my way home, due to a lack of anything interesting to take any pictures of for the rest of the…

A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning A few photos from my slightly hair-raising morning walk. Some lovely sunrises, lots of ice on the canal and a couple of rivers and lakes that were quickly merging together, at the expense of the newly-laid track. At least my wellies stayed strong!
