Our local churchyard in the snow. Nobody had been there since before Christmas, and any Christmas worshippers' footsteps had been long since buried. With the roads in a few inches of snow and the snow deadening any sound, it felt as if the village was abandoned long ago, and was now a long way from inhabited lands; as if, stumbling out of the woods, we had found a place long forgotten.
