330 A cold day in Belfast.

 It was a strange granular snow that lay over our drive this morning.  Frozen solid and very slippery but not deep.  Eliot's paws left a line of clear prints ... and, stuck for an idea for the 365Project ... this seemed as good as any for the theme "texture".  
 The "tea cosy" hat came out again - and I spent a while trying to get a "cute" shot of Eliot wearing it - but he was having none of it!  About twenty blurred black and white images that could have been anything was all I got for my trouble.  Treats didn't work.... firmness didn't work.... as soon as the camera appeared he was off!!  
The only moment of distraction was his enjoyment at the last of tonight's mini-pizza.  But the light wasn't great for this photograph.... 
Today has flown past with various bits and pieces including a delicious bowl of Carrot and Coriander Soup at The Coffee Club where I joined a couple of friends at lunch time.  Then hospital visiting, missed a possible call from my wee sister and time spent sorting out "things" for tomorrow's services.  Suddenly night is here - a cold, cold night it is too!  Maybe a couple of hours on the magazine and then bed!

Lo! he comes with clouds descending,
once for favoured sinners slain;
thousand thousand saints attending
swell the triumph of his train:
alleluia!  alleluia!
God appears on earth to reign.  


Church Hymnal 132
John Cennick (1718-55) and Charles Wesley (1707-88)
