Last Sunday (5 December) was a case in point and we chose to go for a hike on Dartmoor. The visibility was terrific and as a result, the Moor offered wonderful panoramas of bracken and heather, tors, and a picturesque network of small pasture fields.

Do your eyes weep so much that you can't see the view?

So much beauty to take in but not if your eyes are streaming so badly in the cold...

Due to the heatwave in England, the Met Office has issued an extreme heat warning for the first time ever.
