The snow of three weeks ago is a distant memory, but here is where the past can endure…
This ice is about 3cms thick!
The holy well above St Neot:
Not your average drystone wall:
I drove down this road only ten hours before:
Snowballs!

Is the Duracell Bunny doomed?
January 14, 2010 by leap
Did anyone else notice over Christmas a sudden re emergence of the Energiser Man and the Duracell Bunny? I understand that in the great season to consume people need batteries to power all their new gadgets and gizmos, but with rechargeable technology getting exponentially better aren’t the big brands accelerating towards their imminent demise?
As of January 1st 2010 it was made illegal to dispose of industrial and automotive batteries in landfill and by incineration. The only problem is that this is not an industry where the true problem lies; with over 90% of industrial batteries being recycled.
The next step is a set of regulations that applies to portable or household batteries and where the big costs for disposal truly lie. The regulations say that if a company produces more than one tonne of batteries in a year, they must pay into the Battery Compliance Scheme (BCS) that will arrange for the collection and recycling of household batteries. Distributors too will be affected, with any distributor selling more than 32 Kg of batteries a year having to provide a collection point from which the BCS will collect waste batteries.
The UK has the worst recycling rates for household batteries in Western Europe with less than 25% of batteries being saved from landfill. And that’s the target the government is hoping for; 25% recycled by 2012 rising to 45% by 2016.

A little exploration into the barron moor lands of the far west. Not far from the nine maidens stone circle and Men-An-Tol.
