In prospect, rather than actually here yet.
We've been told to expect 80-90 mph winds tomorrow and that they will last until at least the weekend, so obviously we're not going to be going very far for a while. With this in mind we seized the opportunity to go out today, wandering along to Celina Rupp's for lunch.
It wasn't anything special, I'd planned to have the soup but today it was tomato and I don't like tomato soup so opted for a toastie instead. Far too stuffed after that to have anything else and disappointingly they don't ring the changes on those much anyway.
We were all for having a bit of a walk in St Mary's when we were done and we did, but it was rather shorter than we had anticipated due to a very cold wind. Still, that's three days in a row that we've gone out for a walk which we're probably going to be very pleased about if we're going to be stuck inside for the best part of a week from tomorrow. Of course the winds may turn out to be less severe than predicted, they often are. And that would be a Good Thing.
Fingers crossed!!
ReplyDeleteThe wind was hellish on Wednesday - the dog and I set out twice for a short constitutional and got no further than 10 feet from the door - I was walking 'down' the drive but going nowhere and he obviously decided that wind, hail, and rain were not much fun as he went and stood at the door and glared at me both times! There was a curtain sided trailer on the pier and it got blown over! The rescue operation was fun to watch but the poor guys were obviously struggling in the wind.
