Last apple lolly this year, I think, today was a warm day at over 15*, so the donkeys were out in the paddock and happy to stamp on the ice and eat the apple. Made a few trips to collect a tonne of free sand ballast to cover the rubble on the driveway, looked good when it was spread out and reversed onto the first ten yards and had no problem getting out onto the lane. The owls were calling at dusk, at least three of them, I think. A wet start to the day with sunshine and mist later.
