The Vase

We were whistled up at 10am - P&K and their neighbours, proud owners of new wet suits had decided to come down to Wardie to take to the water, as is the fashion. I could have told them it was overcast and grey, the tide was well out and they beach was thick with washed up kelp. Apart from that, the place was looking wonderful.
And later, what was delivered but the long awaited coronavirus vase! A memento of a truly exceptional year. Some sunshine was then briefly delivered. Real, genuinely warm sunshine. Until it was swept away by equally real genuinely freezing haar at 3:42pm exactly. Bah!
