January was a busy month for the weather with a big storm, lots of sunshine, and some heavy snow.

Busy for the weather ... but quiet at the allotment.

It’s a windy winter solstice.

But hey, there’s more daylight from tomorrow - so there’s every reason to smile.

I've been to meet the truly remarkable botanist Dr Margaret Bradshaw.

The 98-year-old has been recording the flora in Teesdale for decades and we talked about plants, legacy, and how the area has adapted to a changing climate.
