I took today off. It was no great problem–Graham had things he wanted to do indoors and the WWW (Wet Welsh Weekend) came in on time and under low, low cloud. If it’d been any lower we’d have been looking down on it.
I had a little wander around the dripping wet garden this morning, waterproof held out over my head like a giant plastic cap, but apart from that I’ve stayed indoors, dry and warmish. I say ‘warmish’ because we’re keeping this house a little cooler than the last to avoid horrendous bills for winter heating.
And now, just a couple of minutes short of 18:00, and dark because the clocks changed in the small hours, taking an hour off the evening and pasting it on the morning, I’m ready to flop in front of the TV until dinner time. Very shortly now my routine evening call out will start up: ”Is it wine time yet?”
