Good morning from a pale apricot sunrise in E Kent. It’s going to be dry again.
The Equinox today, tides should be high and storms start coming. We’re forecast a maximum of 32% chance of rain for the next few days, so we’ll have cloud but not rain.
The Swing bridge between us and Thanet is closed essential repairs and servicing for the next 11 weeks, so all the two golf clubs’ traffic will go past the house, as well as the usual tractors and the school traffic. Can be interesting as our road is often gridlocked by bad parking due to faded double yellow lines and thoughtless drivers.
We went to the supermarket yesterday. There are signs of people stocking up for another lockdown. The pasta and rice shelves were low as were the tinned goods. I bought 12kg of ? tomatoes to make and freeze sauce for the winter. It’s so nice to have fresh sauce then. The local farm shop didn’t have any boxes. Interesting, but it seems that their tomato crop wasn’t so good this year/or the Dutch didn’t sell many in the UK!
DS1 is being summoned back to India by the beginning of October. Although he raring to go, he feels very ambivalent about the journey and having to go through Mumbai, if he can get a flight, that is.
Happy day for everyone today, I trust - even those who are missing through sadness, stress or sickness. Stay safe.
