Lovely frosty morning .....
5th
January 2016 (Thursday)
..... 09.00 we a have ‘wall to wall’
blue sky, after an early morning frost; as was forecast. I say ‘wall to wall’ but there are
few jet trails
cutting through the ‘bloo’. Ian and
Jenny are coming over from Pevensey; I
might take a quick wander ‘down town’ before they arrive .... I could use the exercise.

After
Jenny and Ian went off home to Pevensey, I wandered down town to buy some
fruit. Since then I have been
resting. Walking up from the
bottom of
Uckfield is ‘hard work’.... especially when you think of the lack of ‘hills’ we
have at home. That said I am doing the
uphill bit faster now, so I should be fitter by the time I get back to “The
Royal Burgh”. Colin, who lives ‘round the corner, came round
to see Janice: however Janice was out
shopping. I made a cuppa, and Colin
and I chatted, about his forth coming holiday in Spain and the weather etc.

Would
you believe it.... fog is forecast for the South East tomorrow! We have a marvellous day of ‘wall to wall’
sunshine (apart from the jet trails) .... tomorrow a day of fog turning to
rain. Strange weather indeed. I don’t have a ‘plan’ for tomorrow, though
Jenny was saying that “JB” is free for a couple of days, and might ‘pop over’
later in the afternoon. “JB” is i/c ‘plans’.
Jimmy
tells me that Jim is moored up, in bed, with a cold; and no doubt enjoying being spoiled by Myra. There’s cold doing the rounds
down
here; so far I have managed to avoid it.

Finally. Why is that the manufacturer’s of nail scissors
think that, because the blades are tiny, the rings for your finger and thumb have
to be tiny too?
