There is precious little.......

....attractive about the prospect of getting up at 5am on a Saturday and driving into work, particularly on a morning when for the first time this season it is still dark and the temperature is below 5 degrees.

It is however quite some compensation when an hour later you swing your car onto the road and drive for twelve miles into this magnificent sunrise!


My apologies for the picture quality, most remiss though it was of me I just didn't think to pick up my camera on my way out to work and consequently had to rely on my phone. I did consider turning round and driving home again to fetch the 'real' camera but time was at a premium...... having already hit 'snooze' once too often!
