It’s the third time in three days, I’ve cycled through Burnsall; with views like this it doesn’t take much encouragement. It was just one of those days where you have to keep pinching yourself to remember it’s the middle of December.

This view of Burnsall looks great any time of the year.

Don’t worry this was from 2012. No danger of snow yesterday!
