As the evening drew in, we sat out in the garden to watch the light fade. A Blackbird tried out his song phrases, clear toned and carrying in the clear, cold air. After a run of overcast days the sky cleared to give the most marvelous view of a bright new moon with the brilliance of Venus directly above.
As the local dialect has it, this was "the aald moon in the arms of the new 'een"....absolutely beautiful.
