Verdun, be very careful what you wish for. Barbados gets killer Cyclones, it is often wet. After the coldest winter ever 1947 digging trains out then battle school using live ammo, one round would drive the Mortor base into the mud the next five going in all directions, scraping a field, cow pats and green mold off before we could undress I wished for sun. Boy did I get wish fulfillment the Desert. You very rapidly learn to keep out of it and water is the most precious element on this earth. What ever recovery vehicle I drove had a water cart attached, bars welded to the chassis held gerry cans of water, the lads were rationed a gallon a day for all purposes, I was King, not being a smoker doubly so as the lads knew I always had the 100 free issue at the end of the week, it cost them. The SSM told me I better draw some wages or they would be smelling a rat. It got me a very nice Swiss Watch that lasted years.
Zenjeff, used to go to Killingworth on a regular basis, the BG Depot. Got fish and chips there and they were good although Seaside fish and chips always taste better.
The sun is back out the wind has dropped, better hang the skates back on the wall.

Dry and sunny but a cold wind. Fine for gardening.
Blue skies here too Verdun, with just a hint of sea fog, but not enough to dull the warmth of the sun.
Enjoy it whilst it lasts. The birds love this weather and I do too.

A second lovely day, but I was too busy with other things to be out gardening.
Misty here too, but no blue sky. Quite mild though, good pruning weather.
