Was there a gliche in the matrix on Flickr on 20th January ?? did anyone notice ??

Normally my daily viewings range from 30 to 365 on a good day. Suddenly, I had 3258 viewings on 20th January. All through Flickr apparently.

Did anyone else get a surge on 20th January ?? was it an early April Fools ??

This morning, as I was getting ready for work, I noticed thick clouds of smoke bellowing from a house on the opposite side of the valley. It was too early for a bonfire and the smoke appeared higher up the building. The houses are some distance away from me, so I grabbed my camera, zoomed in as far as I could. Took a couple of photos and zoomed in on the photos to take a closer look. As the air started to clear, I could see that the smoke was coming from the chimney next to the house.

But its not always the case as the following photos will show. Sometimes what looks like a large smokey bonfire from a distance, turns out to be something a lot more.

On that occasion I called the firebrigade. along with several other callers, as it turned out.

From my house I have a view of the valley through Eggbuckland, across to Deer Park, Higher Compton and Hartley. I've had to dial 999 a few times for various fires.

This evenings sunset. I actually got home before the sun set this evening :o)

Just a bit of fun.

Can you see the LOVE in my garden ??

It wasn't done intentionally lol. The shadows and reflections from the flower pots and ornaments around the pond, have left their impression :o)

This mornings sunrise looked promising, but eventually the lovely pink sky faded and turned to grey
