Up at 06:15 as the stormy winds were really noisy again making it hard to sleep.
The forecast anticipates it will continue all weekend, possibly into next week.
Yesterday was my late mother's birthday, and also that of the grandfather who left home when my father was 5, after the birth of my Aunt.
An hour after high tide the wind was blowing the sea right into the park which, in the half light, seemed to be mainly under standing water, and masses of seagulls flocking there.
The prom was totally awash and I could see that South Beach was covered too, which is most unusual.
Just had word that another 3 friends who are younger than I am have had their vax.
3 hours after high tide, water was still crashing over the sea wall and blowing into the park.
I suspect it might be a "light cardy day" for all my chums in the Frozen North!
So grateful I don't have to endure that.... I've been wearing 5 layers in the house as it is!
Managed to find a Poirot on TV I don't think I had seen before, and watched the Stonehenge programme. I did like the sledge experiment.
Good to see that RTL has had her vaccination without ill effect. Phew.
And that everyone else is going on ok; what a lovely surprise for you Annette.
Another photo from proud dad with Baby, but still no gleeful communication from the new mum....
I have to say I begin to be slightly concerned. This generation of continuous selfies and photos shared on the mobile in seconds....... I don't know what to think, but of course I am only the step-mother.
I posted the 3 little hats I made, with pompoms and a card. Don't know what else I can do.
