It’s All in a Day’s Walk

It has been a very dark and faintly depressing day weather wise but fortunately lightened by meeting up with one of the Merry Widows - we were missing Val who was addressing a computer problem with her son in law at home. We managed over 2 hours of chat before we parted and the day was dark and cheerless again.

Feeling a bit of cabin fever coming on, I forced myself out for a walk towards habitation and collect some images of the day………as well as a packet of spongy pot scourers, as you do!
Despite having a dish washer I prefer to wash my plate, bowl and cutlery by hand. I can’t think how many days of solo meals it would take to load the machine to capacity.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, the lamps are lit and I’m almost at the stage of putting on the TV to have YouTube allow me sit in front of a virtual log fire.
Out of the window I am entertained by students, impervious to the gloom, playing 2 different rugby games, cyclists in a hurry to go somewhere and joggers less in a rush. It’s all go while I sit and observe.
