One day like this a year could see me right. But mote than one would be better if it's not too much to ask.

Wintry office view
I've been working today because it's all gone tits in my part of the world. Although I've not been in the office, the white Christmas mixed with a work outlook seems fitting. Dedicating this to those who have to work & be away from their families and would rather be at home. My work is light & quickly done but others are pulling out all the stops. For that, I salute you.

Whiteout
I don't hold much truck with excitement about the weather. It's just like rain only frozen & a billion times more annoyingly disruptive. I guess it is kinda pretty, though.

Benalmadena Costa
Okay, so the resort might be tacky but with your back to the promenade the view's pretty lovely

Cut out & keep
When Spanish buildings fall derelict, they leave no opportunity for return. Maybe someday someone will cut out this bricked-up window & make it useable again

Inglesa Sta. Ana
A view up a side alley in Malaga. Alleys are where all the good stuff is to be found in Spain, it seems.

View from the roof terrace
The outlook from my cousin's roof terrace - the last Cordobese thing I saw before hauling my bag back to the station to head to Malaga. How's that for a view?

Ceiling of the Treasury, Seville Cathedral
What immortal hand or eye could frame thy fearful symmetry?

Farewell, frosty Britain
For now, we leave all this behind. The temperature this morning was -8 degrees Celsius; where we're going it's about 16 degrees warmer. So long for now.

I'd almost forgotten
Then I went to the kitchen, saw the 2" of lying snow & went "oh yeah, I remember..."

Cat in the grass
Maxi on our lawn this summer. We do have two cats. It's just that this one's the only one who stays still long enough to be photographed.

Frosty morning
I've been remiss the past few days with posting but as an excuse I offer my succumbing to a consumptive fever. No, really.

Hotel lights
The hotel I'm staying in this weekend is the weirdest I've ever been in. Last night I put my water bottle down on the floor & it rolled toward the door. The girls I'm staying with call it The Wonky House. I can see why

Ramshackle buildings
Woken by a massive downpour I realised I'd skipped posting for two days. For shame. And now, back to sleep

I made this! BBC Sherlock and John amigurumi dolls
She, like me, is a massive fan of Sherlock Holmes and BBC's recent Sherlock series in particular. As a result, what more could a girl possibly want than her own Sherlock and John? Exactly. Nothing on earth could be better :)
Allow me to introduce you to Sherlock and John:
Aren't they great? I love them to bits and I think they're awesome, even if I do say so myself. Would you like to see some more? Yeah, thought so...
For all you attention-to-detail fans out there, check these out:
And for those who are fans of the show, you may recognise this particular scene from Study in Pink, the first adventure our two heroes had together. I took these pics just for funsies.
