Wow! again, i can tell how bright it is now. Still daaark with the most amazing amount of rain here, and my OH has got snow up in Durham - hope he leaves it there when he comes home tonight.
A thought occured to me yesterday, sat in the gloom, its not a bright idea to do a cold coloured, white winter piccy in winter, is it......don't do much for the humours (i've hit a mental block with ye olde celtic winter). I might have to snaffle one of your more cheery patterns off yeh, hehe. XXX

Luckily it's dried up here today, sun's even poking its head out a bit, but still freezing cold! I imagine celtic winter being a bit of a chilly design - can't you do the summer one? Or something nice and flowery - make you think of sunshine even if there is none!

The green of the leaf really makes the yellows even more lively :wub:
