Postcard from the treetops

One advantage of living on a hillside is the view of the sky. The only time I like cold weather is when it's sunny as well; and when planes leave interesting vapour trails perfectly framed in my roof light then winter doesn't seem so bad.

The temperature is in deep freeze at the moment. The forecast is for a warmer tomorrow, but that means clouds and rain as well. Boo. I wonder where the plane which veered to the right was going? It's heading south, so the destination may have been warmer than Birmingham...

Do you feel the need to go shopping now, K? I heard there's conspiracy theorists who blame the vapor trails (aka contrails or chemtrails) for everything form "the government" dispersing some chemical to make want to go shopping to chemicals to kill off the vegetation.

Am feeling pretty confident that the distance between me and the contrail will allow for adequate dilution of any chemical additives. Or did they make me say that..?
