Morning all, and hope you're enjoying your Christmas, wherever you are. Here in the Western Isles of Scotland, it's a typically Hebridean day: heavy showers, interspersed with painfully bright sunny intervals. Continually changing cloudscapes means it'll be a good day, if a short one, for photography.
Please be careful when cooking your turkey. If you don't want to spend your Boxing Day spewing, ensure the bird is thoroughly cooked at a high temperature and the juices run clear. If you are driving after your dinner, do not drink.
Tajikistan is once again in the news, this time following an accident involving a train. A minibus drove into the path of a train in the capital Dushanbe. The resulting collision killed 9 passengers on board the bus. Its driver appears to have been at fault.
The snowy conditions in the States continue to claim lives. At last count, according to a report issued at 8.30pm EST, 22 people had died in weather-related accidents.

ReplyDeleteIt's six am here right now and our Christmas day is about to begin. Sad news about the tragedies in the U.S. and Tajikistan. My heart goes out to the families of those who lost loved ones in both events. Enjoy your Christmas day between the rain drops, my friend.

It's to early here to be enjoying the day yet but later our crowd will move in and let the fun begin. I will not be having turkey as the main course but will have ham. Hope your day is going well. Helen
ReplyDeleteSad news indeed. Our turkey has just come out of the oven. It looks delicious. Have a great day.

ReplyDeleteHow awful for the train crew...you can't stop those trains on a dime. My heart goes out to the families of those lost in the mini bus. We're at freezing here this morning, but condtions are nothing, compared to those east of us. Those people are really suffering. Linda
ReplyDeleteWe've had a lovely day here weather wise, 40's and sunny. What a shame for those folks on the bus, my goodness that is just terrible.
