Clarity
15°C, Clear: clear head, clear vision and a clear sky. Sunshine is a good idea. Bessie inspected these bones carefully for ages. What went through her mind?Road-rage: On the way home in the car yesterday a guy driving from a … Continue reading
Acephalgic migraine
7°C, light winds, . C=62 miles "real ear-bashing".: Funniest news story of the weekend. Mr Smith, what were the films called? I bet you are looking back on the story and wondering if it was really worthwhile for a hand-shandy.A … Continue reading

6°C, N wind, warmer sun. Some heavy hail showers. Bessie started the day with an unfortunate accident. She must be more careful doing a pre-wash in future. A college friend made that bowl for me in 1986. I’ve used it … Continue reading

What time of day is it?
7-12°C, dry. C: 59 miles 04.40 :Dark right now. Lying awake thinking stuff over. Conversations mostly; non-too good ones though. Sunday nights are often plagued with sleeplessness, I can only guess why. Pre-work and troubled old friendships.Bessie: (and Rosie) have … Continue reading
