British Summer Time has officially started so a brisk walk was called for this afternoon.

A lot of work has been done recently opening up Hamble Common to make it more accessible to walkers, revealing beautiful scenery like this.

Don't worry, they know what they're doing....... honest

The view from my front garden yesterday. Today the snow was much deeper but unfortunately no time to take photos. I drove to work this morning, had I walked I'd have probably taken hundreds of photos
