Winter pics from the UK

It looks like a Prickly Heath plant. I don't think the berries are really for eating, Snubby.

Are they edible?

Chitty doesnt let yellow stickers OR snow get in the way of a feast

Could the plant be a myrtle?

Interesting, and I really did not think the berries were for eating. Just curious.

They might be dingle berries?

Yikes, I'm flying there later this week. Not my most intelligent decision.

Long johns are a good call.

You don't say! Going from desert like temps to the UK, okay then. I have one word.. layers.

respectable 8 inches deep and so bright that sunglasses were needed..

very nice, I love when the sun makes the snow glisten. Easy to get a burn with that sun in the winter, defo sunglasses needed.

Some serious sledging going on..

Is that like sledding? Always fun to do down the hills.
I am excited to go skating tomorrow on the canal. Earliest it has opened since 2018. The last few years it barely opened, cause of the warmish winter (thanks to global warming). 18$ just to get my skates sharpened today! lol. Wish me luck I don't fall and kill myself! Been a few years!

[DrWilly]

I’m wishing alright.

^^ will have to check if my old Bauer Air 50’s are still stashed in the wee cupboard under my Ma’s stairs.

Nice! Mine are Reebok recreational skates.

Seven or eight years old, but still in good shape.

Cool did you managed a respectable " Camel Spin" or " Bunny Hop"? I reckon I'd struggle to stay upright and might end up doing a "Death Spiral ".

^I didn't fall, darling. It took me awhile to find my feet and feel confident after not skating for three or four years. It's like riding a bike once you learn you don't forget. It was nice the temps weren't overly cold (was about -4).

like riding a bike

Don't risk it on thin ice, you could be frozen solid
