Winter Solstice Sustenance for the Soul in Fryent Country Park

Light at the end of the tunnel?
After a week of Christmas meals, concerts, Nativities (yes, both schools where I am a governor had one despite the usual media stories) and exceptional traffic on Wembley Matters caused by the Kensal Rise Library controversy, I felt the need for quiet contemplation this morning and enjoyed a walk from Wembley to Kingsbury via the meadows and woods of Fryent Country Park.

It was food for the soul in winter sunshine on the eve of the Winter Solstice. The subtle winter colours and beautiful tree shapes revealed by the loss of leaves often stopped me in my tracks and the wide blue skies lifted my spirits.
