Snow came as predicted

What a difference a day makes.

But it'll be the sludge turning to ice which will prove troublesome.

Short break in the fog ...

... allowed for a dog walk in the sunshine.

The carefully minded & sighted of you who pass the Pickenhams will have noticed some smaller offspring in the vicinity. Two small turbines, not unlike larger versions of the St Andrew's school windmill, have appeared at Dennis' Kings Row Farm on the high ground off Houghton Lane.
A rather more leisurely, larger bladed turbine is nearer to the airfield eight, nearby to the Matthews' turkey sheds, at the Blackmore's Daleacres farm in South Pickenham.

Finally succumbing to autumn, albeit unseasonably fine

The morning fog lifted smartly, the windless day welcomingly warm.

Roast Dinners at School

Press reports of nutritious roast dinners, made from very local produce, being served to pupils and staff at St Andrew's School including vegetables from their very own garden.

Lynn News

Last of the Indian Summer Sunshine

Only the long shadows give away these were taken only last Friday.

No such sunshine this weekend.

Fly tipping, again

Almost a daily sight, new signs of fly-tipping around the Pickenhams' has long been a problem.

The vacuum cleaner was on Houghton Lane on the way to the Ashill Recycling Centre, the burnt out carcass was in fact a loaded rubbish laden trailer, dumped some days before it was burnt with the fire brigade attending the situation, and not a caravan as the press reported.
