Hello, December – time flies, a run through the woods, sort of watching a movie, birding along the lane and fishing a reservoir – starting the month how I intend to carry on

Dilwyn, my dog, joined me and he definitely prefers the woods to the lane because he can go off his lead.

Then, after a shower, I sat down to watch a movie on my phone.

Murder In Soho is a black and white crime drama from 1939.

I’ve also had three failed attempts to get through it in the last week because on each occasion I’ve fallen asleep.

I’ll watch it in the morning, I thought to myself, I won’t be nodding off then.

Can you believe it though, just twenty-seven minutes in and the screen went blank.

It was a TPTV (the website) limited release and I’d just hit the limit.
