As a millpond

It seems ages since I had a non-work Monday with no schedule to follow. Had a good early morning walk with the dog at which point I was optimistic that the mist was going to lift. Now, at lunchtime, I'm much less sure. It is very grey and the glimpse of blue sky has gone again. The river looks still here but the tide was on its way out.

I made cheese scones and invited my friend who has just become a grandmother for the first time round for coffee. We talked at length about the joys of grandparenthood. The new baby doesn't have a name yet so I'm waiting to hear what it is before writing a card.
