Sounds perfect Prue, Its so wet and windy here that I am so glad not to be out in it, but the garden is suffering for it , its like walking on marshland , but it is mild, the days are getiing longer too so thats hope, I noticed yesterday as I had a quick half hour weeding ( before more rain) that the daffodils are coming up and some of the shrubs are starting to bud, so I'll take that as a positive. Enjoy the time with the littlist farmer and your beloved xx

Your winter sounds so like ours of 2022, Libby. Just marshy wetness. I was so over it and to have not had a consistent summer for 3 years was just too much for me. But now they're predicting El Nino which for us means dry heading to drought. It's one thing or another, so we must take the breaks when we can. Lots of love!

Your descriptions (prune skin and salty all over) made my childhood vacations to the beach so wonderful...I loved those feelings as well as a thin layer of sand and sun that penetrated to the marrow of my bones! Unfortunately, I live too far inland from the Atlantic and must travel to spend time at the beach. Living there has always been a dream. (I've dealt with skin cancer on my face and must cover up, as well.)Thanks for taking me back for a lovely moment or two!

I'm also truly enjoying 'Old Rage' on audio, so thanks for that, as well!

So glad you enjoyed my words and never say never. One day you may end up living back at the coast - we never really know what life will turn up.

The whole skin cancer thing is such a nuisance. I was blithe for all of my life but when sunscreen became the thing in the 70's, I did it - shirts, creams and hats - and have done it ever since. But the damage was done.

These days - apart from when I'm swimming, I am covered with shirts, creams, towels and sunhats and still I worry.

But how I love the sea!!!!

Glad you're liking Old Rage.
