I don't give it much hope but cannot come up with anything better. Picture taken with a Jolla 1 from outside my office during a lunch break on 21st January. It is remarkable for its lack of any features except a single contrail. Our vicinity to Heathrow usually presents more than one, on the rare occasion we can see any blue in the sky at all.

No, we were not high when this happened... So the link to the context would be that we had high expectations for the evening. We were going to ski through the forest to the cabin and see the sunset at the lake. But instead we missed the sunset while waiting a tractor to pull the car out... The road was covered by ice and was slippery like glass, and there were 5cm of fresh snow covering the ice. So even for the tractor with snowchains it was almost impossible to pull the car out.

I cannot complain. It is worth the hour's commute (each way).

Here are some more of the whole building (a converted barn) and a view from the window. Taken in 2015 and 2016, respectively, and shrunk before uploading since they are not part of the competition.

Sadly, the company is closing our office because of "a limited scope for growth" (read: cost saving). So I will be looking for a new job soon. And I mean real soon, not Jolla soon.

I feel for you. Something remotely similar happened to me once. It was in the summer and I got stuck in the mud when I was trying some shortcut that a map insisted was there. A paper map at that time, no GPS.
