It was so windy that Inca turned tail for home within a minute of us starting on our afternoon walk!<br />It was the most ferocious gale which was so strong that it blew one of the doors off the oil tank store! The wind warped the frame, which literally broke in two, and sailed away with the door attached! I didn't realise how heavy the door was until I came to lift it off the driveway. Later this morning we shall have to start checking for other damage and fear there may be more (and expensive) repair work needed. No doubt the damage will be deemed a freak of nature and not covered by my household insurance!<br />Can't help thinking that your mayor may have issues with being seen about in daylight!Coppa's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459503600694841117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-80894383328307155652021-01-23T08:54:29.509+01:002021-01-23T08:54:29.509+01:00Good to see a young poet at the inauguration.Good to see a young poet at the inauguration.Angushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13905037014736070475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-81110997850567259552021-01-23T08:53:57.135+01:002021-01-23T08:53:57.135+01:00That is Sophie's singing face.That is Sophie's singing face.Angushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13905037014736070475noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-75186620287908768472021-01-23T08:53:31.213+01:002021-01-23T08:53:31.213+01:00In the late 70's Angus we spent a lot of time ...In the late 70's Angus we spent a lot of time in cold war Poland and East Germany. Sometimes we would face the lengthy border checks and drive down to Prague. The secret to blending in was wear lots of polyester. First way of telling if someone was from the west - look at their shoes. Anything leather was a sure give away that you were from the other side.

It's cold ...That really is a remarkable smile! It's cold and blustery in Tokyo today as well, and we've discovered what it's like to have an exercise-deprived three and a half-month old puppy in the house. For her history class on the Cold War, my daughter has been trying to map out an escape route from East Germany through Hungary and Austria and finally Munich, but Charlie's just not having it. These lessons are interesting to me as well as I realize I never really learned about the Cold War in any systematic fashion, as we were all just living through it when I was my daughter's age. Reading what people went through also puts things into perspective pandemic-wise. We now have at least two untraceable cases of the UK variant in Tokyo. This is not good timing as the medical system is coming under increasing pressure. The government thought it was smart during the first wave, but it was probably just lucky and now any admission that the situation is getting worse would be at odds with the "firm assertions" that the Olympics will be held this summer.Lisa in Francehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06080757130655335246noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-860373600653353661.post-65076975126666792021-01-23T08:38:25.429+01:002021-01-23T08:38:25.429+01:00Love the walrus poem.
