What can I write today? There’s nothing different in the weather. There’s wind and rain and sun all mixed. It’s the second day of the dark half of the pagan year. What can we expect? The horse chestnut here lost its leaves in the wind, but there are no conkers. There is rain on the sea but the sun shines on the golf-course. There will be restrictions on Thursday, so there are lots of golfers. After Wednesday, the golf course will be empty, I expect. There’s a lot of water on the road. Is that rain? No, it’s not rain. Is there a spring in nthe road? There isn't. Somebody is emptying his garden tub with a hose pipe. The pharmacy dispenser phoned – I must wait for my medicine.
