December 1998

December 9th. Unlike today in 1981, no snow today, warmer in fact but damp and foggy with rain in the morning.

10th. Warmer again today.

11th. Warmer weather we've had the last two days.

13th. Beautiful clear golden morning, cold though; before lunch it had got so dark and dismal that it seemed cosy inside - heavy cold rain.

Changeable, very mild at times. [...]
