Abominably cold again, with rain in the afternoon.

Monday, January 29, 2001

Very cold indeed all day.

Sunday, January 28, 2001

Excellent weather - cold & clear.

Saturday, January 27, 2001

To Frinton. Rather cold with stiff onshore breeze, sea rather beautiful, silver in fact.

Friday, January 26, 2001

Got soaked walking home, nice to get in and get dried and warmed up.

Thursday, January 25, 2001

Sky quite light when I was walking home - very encouraging as I would love to be out of the 'perpetual night' thing one gets during the week Nov-Jan.

Wednesday, January 24, 2001

Bright, sunny day - not too cold either. Big improvement.

Tuesday, January 23, 2001

Didn't half rain in the evening. Find the sound of rain on a roof (when I'm inside) very comforting.

Monday, January 22, 2001

Wet, dismal morning.

Sunday, January 21, 2001

Very wet - rain almost all day.

Saturday, January 20, 2001

Very cold, foggy, grey, yesterday's snow still lying, and outlining the trees in white. Thick fog in the evening.

Friday, January 19, 2001

Cold again but grey: began to snow at lunchtime and came down all afternoon and evening in big flakes. Wonderful view West about 4pm from the top of the steps: trees black, grass white to grey, distance grey and dim with falling snow.

Thursday, January 18, 2001

Very cold again.

Wednesday, January 17, 2001

Huge round red sun on horizon at 4pm.

Tuesday, January 16, 2001

Very cold and clear. Walking home in the sunset afterglow, I didn't find the sunset depressing because I knew the sun'd come up tomorrow.

Monday, January 15, 2001

At 3.30 rather nice round red sun above the winter fields.

Sunday, January 14, 2001

Another beautiful day - clouded over at 5pm but dramatically, so even that was good.

Saturday, January 13, 2001

Pressure very high at 1042 mb/30.7 in. Certainly a beautiful clear day all day, and a wonderful starry night. Venus, Jupiter and Saturn all on show - latter close to Hyades and Aldebaran.

Friday, January 12, 2001

Cold and grey, with the same dry East wind straight from Siberia.

Thursday, January 11, 2001

Cold again, with a dry East wind.

Wednesday, January 10, 2001

Cold again.

Dark and raining heavily in the morning.
