with a Rainbow!
Well I thought I'd try brightening the weekend up, ta da! Rainbow hair!
What a miserable few days we've had here in the south west, strong winds, incessant rain and a marked drop in temperatures but I guess it is October, we shouldn't expect the warmth and sunshine to go on forever. On the plus side, fewer people are out and about which is good for the Covid fight right?
The weather has certainly influenced my activities this week, the one dry day, Thursday, I did go for a bike ride, another 'easy' ride towards Gloucester, lunch stop was at Slimbridge, beloved of several generations of twitchers. Not that I was looking at the birds, rather my cheese and pastrami roll and pasty! The return was the 'riverside' route through Berkeley and Hill returning me to base with a little over 65 miles on the clock.
Since then I've been confined to barracks, waiting for a break in the weather to get out. It does mean the shoulder has had more rest but its nevertheless still a bit frustrating. It has encouraged some indoor pursuits, hair dyeing aside, yesterday I cooked a pan of chilli which went down well with the landlady and today I'm planning on a sausage casserole - I enjoy cooking, its the clean up that gets me down!
Today then I give you Summer Girl part 37, Costumes R us, Gaby gets to meet JK Rowling, she may not be flavour of the month with folks here atm but when this was written and set she was a writing idol for tweens and teens. You also get Avoidance part 8, Parental Uncontrol, the new arrivals at Bad Durkheim get settled in although Gaby gets some less than welcome news from home.
So that's about it for today, its still siling down outside the glass, the wind giving the occasional more vocal gust just to remind us of its presence. The forecast is better for tomorrow so hopefully I can get out on two wheels for at least a short ride.
ta ta for now,
Madeline Anafrid
