The Snowman looks a tad lonely waiting int he school playground whilst they are all off for the weekend.. will they come to see him on Monday?
.....Will he still be there waiting for them on Friday/
..you see, life as a snowman is full of imponderables!!
The school is a lovely Victorian stonebuilt, but the village has outgrown it & work is presently going on (yes in greenfield on part of a farm) to build a new one.
Thought I'd give you a break from the Solstice series with this shot taken at the village school, just around the corner.
Have a great day, stay in or wrap up warm!!

Cheers Oryx, not my snowman, so canlt take the credit :-p
Hi Herman,
it's hard to believe almost!!
My mother in laws family live in Zimbabwe & I'd never thought about that...saying that..we have the same issue..but with sunshine!
I didn't realise the snow was so thick. I asked a snowman the time and he just stared back at me!!

Very creative abstract image along with a nice write up.
Deep
He's an optimist, we can see that.
Lovely composition, and it made me smile.
Moira
Thanks for the comments &/or clicks folks
I'd imagine they will turn the school into apartments... the houses here are unde r a cinservation order, nothing can be changed to the frontage ....
Your'e right Leon, the old one will no doubt fade into memtory..I'm more gutted they are building it on farmland really...seems a bit off..badger setts there :-(
Great composition Gareth and narrative - love it! I thought your joke regarding the sunshine down your way was really funny. Summer is just around the corner
