the day, but it is cauld on the lugs... well .... it is down on the
beach. I will get some tidying up done in the garden...
but not before the sun is higher, and with it the temperature. Anyway ... it’s breakfast time..... Weetabix and a touch of caffeine.
15.30 It has been a perfect day for working in

The ‘plan’ is to do as much tidying up as I can while this Spring weather
lasts.
Brexit
continues to flounder along in the UK political scene; quite frankly this has been the worst
political mess we’ve had for decades.
Nothing has changed since December, when ‘The Deal’ was conceived. We need a Leader; a decision making Leader
.... the New Zealand Prime Minister
comes to mind.
