Starry night

[bunn]

The sky is very dark and the stars are very bright tonight. I can see a car coming down the hill on the other side of the valley, perhaps four or five miles away as the bunn walks, perhaps two as the crow flies, but I think the crows are all in bed. The engine I can hear is coming from that car, I think, unless there is another car I can't see turning at the same moment : there are no nearer sounds. I can't hear the river at all.  

It's very cold, suddenly: I think there might even be a little frost tonight.

A wonderful nightscape... *Sighs*

there are no nearer sounds If no snuffling noises, then we can deduce that it must have been past Darwin's bedtime...

Darwin had gone foofling and puffing back inside : I was waiting for Mollydog who had wandered silently up the garden on sneaky greyhound feet.

Az was standing next to me doing his famous impersonation of a statue of a lurcher. He feels he needs to keep an eye on me, lest I go and pat Darwin without him giving me the evil eye.
