Tuesdays are the one day when I should have no problem getting a photo for my PAD gallery, even in winter.
I finish work at 2pm and don't have to collect my son from school until 3.15pm which should give plenty of time for a quick snap.
But yesterday I had errants to run, groceries to buy, a trip to the vets to get pet food, and a journey to the retail park on the edge of town to buy a new kettle.
I wasn't worried though, sure the sun was shining and there was snow on the mountains, so I thought I'd go for a little drive after I got home and take some nice wintery shots.
Dark clouds crowded in and it started raining as soon as I got home. I thought I'd have to skip a day, and then I noticed my husband reading the newspaper on the iPad.
We've more or less stopped buying newspapers in our house ( a strange admission for a journalist I know) but read most of our favourite papers on-line.
I love the Guardian's app for the iPad but don't subscribe as I don't have enough time to read the paper from cover to cover so I just use the website.
