Winter Solstice Stroll

 



Taking a peaceful stroll during the long twilight of the winter solstice, along the farm tracks around the bucolic grandeur of Brinscall Hall. Apparently the Hall can be hired for cerebral writer's weekends, Yoga retreats or B'rit Milahs. OK so I was making the B'rit Milah thing up, because nobody would want you bleeding all over the Withdrawing Room rug. Might be ok in the Conservatory though, they're very accommodating.
