Evening stroll through illuminated gardens at Harlow Carr, Harrogate, last night. Bitterly cold, but beautiful – and the hot chocolate helped.

@vanessa beautiful. And I expect the cold 🥶 kept most people at home. Have a safe and Happy New Year.
@khurtwilliams Thank you, and the same to you. The event is sold out, but they have been very sensible, so it wasn’t too busy at all. Very well managed.
@vanessa Fine garden, as I recall, but a bit of a steep climb.
@jeremycherfas Yes, on quite a slope, but they are lovely. I’ve been a few times when up here, never before at night. It was thoroughly enjoyable.
