Lovely morning .... but there's a North east breeze ...
26th
March 2017 (Sunday)....
12.00 We
have a ‘bright, sunny and warm’ day here, though there is a light breeze from
the East, which will keep the
temperature down a wee bit. I began the day in ‘working’ mode by putting
a washing on .... and then went down to the beach for a pre-breakfast
walk. It was one of those really
quiet and peaceful mornings, with not
even floppy waves falling onto the sand... the water was quietly, almost
furtively, creeping up the beach. I
wandered along the tide line rocks to the Cockstail, and pottered around there,
where the desire to have breakfast suddenly hit me. I got back to Ivy at 08.45 .... only to
discover, when I switched on the computer, that it was in fact nearly
10.00; I’d forgotten to change the
clocks. Oh .... the ‘Ferry Clock’ is
at the correct time.... and like, Ivy Cottage, is now working.... on BST.

21.00 My word .... I’ve had a busy day... and a
quick one. Losing an hours sleep is bad
enough with this clock change; but, thinking
you’ve got up early, only to suddenly discover that you are in fact are an hour
behind is worse. However I managed to
get all the things done that I’d planned ..... even finding time to go for a
walk, and a seat up at Chapel Green with Jimmy. Actually we were lucky to get a seat ....
most of the seats were occupied, with folks relaxing in the afternoon
sunshine.... or having a break from walking the Coastal Path. It has been a perfect day for walking.
I
got the bike out of the shed this afternoon and set about adjusting the saddle
etc. The saddle for my own bike is the
right type, so I don’t need a new one.
For the last two years I’ve been using Maggie’s bike, which has the kind
of saddle suited to female
anatomy! I
do know that boys’ and girls’ are different,;
but didn’t realise that ‘male and female’ bicycle saddles were. I’m looking forward to going round the
Ferry on the bike tomorrow morning.

With
the wind coming from the East the weather forecast is for us to more in the way
of cloud coming in from the North Sea .... just when I was getting used to the
sunshine!
