Not really - lots more rain and wind - the radio is full of stories about the sea throwing stones at houses and washing away the railway lines.
But we laugh at the rain here in Bristol, on
Monday a bus driver said he’d seen a crocodile in the river and it’s made
INTERNATIONAL news. There’s already grafitti up and ‘Chris’ has two Twitter accounts.
In non-weather news: I have toothache and made, what I thought would be a soothing,
gruel for lunch but I added some out-of-date porcini which made the entire kitchen
smell of horse manure and the gruel taste a bit farmyardy
None of this bothers me – not one jot
because I have a ticket to visit That London where I will go to look at art and
people and shiny things.
Also I have many duck legs slowly melting
in my oven - the farmyard smells have been replaced by the scent of butter and cardamom and cinnamon and
anise and orange.

Now I am waiting for Banksy to "do" Chris!
ReplyDeletePS: I am having visions of legless ducks. Was Chris involved?
I think Chris is working at the local butchers, these days I ask for 'Chops please and make them snappy'
DeleteWhisky for toothache! Nothing else will do. Also Whisky for weather as well.
