Beasty Easty


 ... new meteorological term gleaned from BBC today: a "beasty easty" is a viciously cold easterly wind. 

Despite the apparent temperature, there were signs of oncoming spring on our walk today:

Snowdrops, or should they be "dried-up leaf drops"

We (the dog & I) also found a funny statue, which embodies said dog's stagnation in terms of obedience training:

"Lie down! ..... I said LIE DOWN!!"

And an opportunity not to be missed: details of gorgeous tiles on windows high up above the Langedijk. The only way to see them is from the flat across the road, which hubby is renovating. I'm not sure when they date from, but I find it charming that someone put so much effort into the architectural details which could never have been really appreciated by the man in the street.
