Gently falling snow, dim street lights, trees, church bells, dusk…
Almost Victorian.
I half expected a country urchin to gambol out with a dirty face and hobnail boots before squeaking, ‘Spare a sixpence? My pony Bobbin has terrible gout!’
To which I would respond, ‘Nae, but I have a lump of coal and a cuff about the ear. Now, off to the workhouse with ye!’
Ah, happy winter times
