I didn’t go out today. The weather wasn’t too bad but I stayed home. I have a sore throat and cough. I shan’t go out tomorrow either. I wrote a little story for my writers group (next Saturday). I need something else as well, perhaps a poem or a song. The postman brought a Sophie Blokker calendar today, from our friends in New Zealand. It is very lovely. There are native birds with scenes on their breast. They give me a good idea for my own paintings. There are no penguins or albatrosses at all in Cornwall, but I could paint a chough with cliffs on it rather than behind it - or a seagull with somebody's picnic.
