Bright and breezy .... and, so is Sussex
3rd
January 2017 (Wednesday) ....
10.30 We have a bright and breezy
morning in Sussex; much the same as it
is in Fife: having looked at the Fife weather
Cams. It’s a braw ‘drying day’; welll maybe just too windy.

I’m
going to bumble downtown... as far as the Centre where I’ll have a bowl of soup
and a cuppa. John and I are leaving
for Eastbourne about 14.00 so I’ll make a point of being home in plenty of
time.
13.00 I meandered my way downtown.... walking 3.56
kilometres (2.2 miles). I did some
shopping in Tesco’s, and, as planned, had vegetable soup, and a roll, in The Centre. Both Barrie and Ted were working, and the
Cafe was busy. I’m finding the High Street easier this year,
but I take it slowly. Orf down to make
a cuppa, and to let out Bonnie.
23.30 Both ‘JB’ and I had successful missions in
Eastbourne; ‘JB’ got his shopping ....
I got some nice photographs of the Eastbourne Bandstand, and the area around
it. With the wind, and the wind chill
factor, Eastbourne was really cold, but
there’s plenty
shelter around the Bandstand and promenade; that said I was glad to get back to, and
into, the car. ‘JB’ had to get back home
to “No1”, to make himself ready for the Staff Christmas Party, in Brighton
tonight..... so we didn’t have time for coffee. Luckily we got out of Eastbourne before the
rush hour.... and ‘JB’ caught the Brighton bus planned.

No
plans for tomorrow morning; it depends
on what the weather is doing really.
It turned colder today, but at least it has been dry, and the wind has
dried up some of the water that’s lying in the fields. Tomorrow is forecast to be cloudy with the
chance of rain.
Isn’t
it braw how a touch of sunshine makes us feel better. I’m plagued with a cough
that the recent
cold has left me with, but it’s slowly getting better; though sometimes it doesn’t sound like
it. ‘JB’ was talking of going somewhere
tomorrow afternoon but that all depends on how the Staff Party went; he may have fallen ‘in love’ tonight.
