Sunday 25th 47F/8.5C [5.00] A day for fierce, southerly gusts to 24m/s falling slowly. Heavy rain expected 22mm. Temperature peaking early at 8C before climbing to 11C.
I was having unpleasant memories and decided to get up. Without taking the 1 hour clock change into account. It was only 4.30. Not the slightly less foolish 5.30.
8.10 It has rained but seems to be having a rest. Not blowing as hard as it was earlier. I can see a bright strip of water on the drive. Though it hasn't reached the boundary yet. There are raindrops all over the new, glazed door. Which faces north and is sheltered by the large roof overhang.
Perhaps I ought to have a walk while I can. The DMI radar shows a gap in the rain clouds.
8.40 Back from my walk. It was dry, even a glimpse of sunshine. The wind was highly variable. No miniature guard dog today.
10.40 I dragged the recycling bin along the drive in my wellies. It was blowing a gale and raining. The absent neighbour's bins had both blown over. To join the builder's debris left scattered all around there. It must be well over a year ago now.
It blew and it rained as I dozed on the computer. No point in risking a nap. I have already exceeded my allowance.
Dinner was chicken and mushroom curry with Ben's medium sauce.
