Mist and Fire
[Friday 11th December 2020]
Went for a misty walk on the heath around sunset, then later on in the evening went and sat in Jeremy's garden for a bonfire with some wine.

Davenport on the Heath
[Thursday 10th December 2020]
Having put in long hours Monday to Wednesday at work to get something finished off, I rewarded myself today by finishing a a bit early, and doing the only thing I ever get to do these days in terms of recreation - having some wine on the heath.

Wedding Anniversary
[Tuesday 8th December 2020]
Mine and Chie's wedding anniversary. So we took a flask of tea for a late morning stroll to the heath - like an elderly couple - followed by lunch outside the Pineapple.

Heath with Erika
[Sunday 6th December 2020]
Managed to persuade Erika to come to the heath with me with the promise of an ice cream. So we sat together for a while at my favourite spot, the barrow, having ice cream / lollies (despite near freezing temperatures) followed by some more Nuit St Georges. Lovely.

Forty Hall
[Saturday 5th December 2020]
Drove to Forty Hall in Enfield in the morning to buy a case of their newly released 2018 vintage, and then later on took a bottle to the heath to try. Unfortunately it was faulty though! So later on instead tried an excellent 2005 Nuit St Georges I'd recently ordered from Fingal Rock in Monmouth.

East Meon on the Heath
[Tuesday 1st December 2020]
Clocked off from work a bit early (having worked late the previous evening) to try the newly released 2015 vintage of East Meon Berrygarden around sunset. It was very nice.

Wreath
[Monday 30th November 2020]
Erika and I made a Christmassy wreath from holly and ivy we'd gathered whilst out on the heath yesterday.

Drawing
[Saturday 28th November 2020]
I went for a very brief walk to Hampstead Heath in the afternoon, but it turned out I wasn't really in the mood, so pretty much turned around and went home again as soon as I got there. Later on Erika and I did some drawing together. Lebanese food for dinner, with some Chatea Musar white.
