I declare after all there is no enjoyment like reading! How much sooner one tires of anything than of a book! When I have a house of my own, I shall be miserable if I have not an excellent library.
Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
Never ending rain. How dull.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. ~ Mark Twain
Cold, windy, heavy showers - same as yesterday and I had washing to hang out to dry and plants to put in the garden, the soil is too claggy to dig. Thwarted, that's what I've been this week-end, thwarted.

Very, very windy with occasional showers and downpours. Hope this changes soon. Lovely summer in England as usual!

It's about the same as usual. The temperature is within the range that humans can survive in; the humidity is somewhere between 30 and 90 %. It's just an ordinary day.
Today in Australia it is hidious, Winter and we are having the coldest days in 40 or something years. Ridiculous its like 18 degrees celcius outside......

Ha I knew it! I read your introduction post and knew straight away that you were an Aussie. Where I am (which could be very near or very far from you) the sun has been really warm, but the wind is FREEZING. And the nights are getting really cold, ranging about 4 degrees celcius. Seeing as it is about 10pm, I would think that it is getting cold now. But I'm inside and the window is shut so who knows?

It's ashen and quiet, just like any other day before the rain.
