The Front Room Links

this feels like the moors

The light is terrible today! Grey, dank & oppressive. It feels like the eerie calm before the proverbial storm. This strange mix of concrete, pebbles and coloured tufts of grass near the waterfront makes me feel like I'm in a bastard mix of the moors in Wuthering Heights and the Soviet Union.
