Weather starting to break up after a mostly rainy Thanksgiving day. The rainbow extended this far for a minute or less.

A typical summer's Christmas Day on the farm in the Wimmera!

While most of the UK is covered in snow, here on the west coast we usually miss out on it.
We did have a few flakes earlier this afternoon but then the clouds broke up and the sun came out.
I just caught this from the bottom of our garden a short while ago, before the sun went down for the last time in 2020.

Happy New 2021 everyone.

I took this photo 'cos I loved the silhouetted trees alongside our campsite, but I think it suits this thread better.

Not been on the Carlsberg then Erik?

^^^^^^^
Naah! It's one of the weird things I've gotten with my weird old cameras...

Brings back fond memories from the pre-digital-picture-manipulation days!

Weird filters, and Kodalith, were the only things I could use to make the kind of pictures I always seem to make. With everyone looking at them and scratching their heads, wondering what the heck they depict!

But I do have a bunch of beers out on the balcony! But they are way too cold. I'll either have to warm them up indoors over night, or dunk them for fifteen minutes in hot water before they're good to go down.

Haha. The Angles came over from their part of the Jutland peninsula in the 5th Century AD, and occupied the area where I live. Apparently they drove most of the native Celtic British population west into what is now Wales. So I could take a photo across the Severn Estuary from here and declare it "Free Britain, shot from occupied Western Britain". That would confuse some of the flag waving sovereignty enthusiasts with whom I share my country.

Nice bottle of wine I had tonight, too...

And the Romans, the Norse Vikings, the Normandy Vikings, and ... .

Thus, one can argue that we founded the Free (Western) World, in addition to just making Carlsberg, probably the Best Beer in the World!

Not a bad contribution to history, or what do you think, @John King?

And the ethnically cleansing Swedes (the Rus) founded Russia...

Don't forget the Saxons! Of mixed heritage, aren't you?

 

[John King]

@Erich_H The original XXXX (aka Fourex) of my youth (1960s through to late 1970s) was the best beer in the world ... .

Closely followed by Victoria Bitter ...

But I've been teetotal since 1986. So what would I know?

Slightly ...

Throw in my eastern Mediterranean heritage from around the 10th century AD. Hybrid vigour? Perhaps just 'mongrel' ... .

Well, not being abstinent, so much, I'll say:
"Love the one you're with".
Anyway, after six bottles of beer in the belly, you're sure to do just that!
