The weather has turned twice this morning.
I was up early ( for me) and took the Welsh to the beach for a long walk along the Prom.
We shared a cheese Flatbread on the way home and I treated myself to a large white coffee, which I’m still sipping , even if it is cold .
It was windy but not cold on the beach but now it’s started to rain and I’ve been in the garden cutting roses and am chilled and damp.
I’ve filled in the gaps with honeysuckle
By 1pm I was hungry, after all the Welsh Had eaten most of my breakfast.
The treat today was fish and chips, and when cooked by an experienced chippie , is a meal worthy of any Michelin star chef.

The singing has that feel of Fado (sp?)
ReplyDeleteThe weather is throwing everything at us in rapid succession! Good to get a walk in.
I like the arrangement..the honeysuckle gives it that extra something
I was rather struck by the French singer, I have no idea why

DeleteVegetarian, so no fish for me! I used to like the scraps. (The little bits of cooked batter left in the fat, for your American readers) Do they still do them? xx

ReplyDeleteHave been following the news about Michael Mosley and hoping desperately for a good outcome. Struggling today to lift my spirits. I listen often to him on I Player and am so used to his voice. Sometimes it is hard to make your own sunshine.
