The frost has cast an eiry moonscape glow on the hillside.
It's too early for the cows to be out, munching. Sheep appere as small grey lumps in the frosty grass. Over the hills in the far distance lights of the first aircraft show as it makes it's ponderous climb into the early morning.It is just a speck of light, like a fire-fly on a summer night - silent, slow.
Smoke curles from the chimny of a cottage on the slopes and down deep in the bottom the river glints.
To the east on the brow of the hill the lights of the first bus appere, following the road north, to the scotish boarder.
It is time to put the kettle on and make a pot of tea to start the day.
