Thats a nice picture, I especially like the coating of frost on the bare branches, really wintery feel too it, even though its a bright sunny day.
Is that frost or is it Photoshop?Quote:

Excellent.
No Spring can't be far away but I don't mind Winter anyhow. :)

A century ago Liverpool was the major European port serving the eastern Seaboard of America and much of its growth can be attributed to the fact that its position offered the shortest sea route.Quote:

Inward traffic usually peaks between 6.00 am & 10.00 am as flights head for Heathrow and major continental airports, whilst outbound traffic is normally at its heaviest between 11.00 am & 2.00 pm. I was told that at one time Wallasey was the busiest crossing point in Europe for transatlantic traffic. Traffic levels can however fluctuate markedly from day to day as aircraft are often allocated more northerly flight tracks over the Atlantic depending on prevailing wind strength.
They are a nuisance. Send 'em further south. I've started zapping them with me laser pointer. That'll teach 'em.
