A Pleasant Visit

Today began cold, in fact because of cold that I woke up; Richie agreed and immediately closed windows.

This initially helped me go to sleep again, only to wake me up again because it was so cold in bedroom.

Richie put the central heating on, which was quite amazing thing to be doing on 31 August, especially as over a week ago we were having a heat wave.

After Richie came back from taking the dogs round the block he said it was just like October outside, were people wearing coats and scarves.

This afternoon I had a pleasant visit with Anne came around at 14.00, she looked wonderfully relaxed after her holiday in Italy with her son.

It was nice to see her and to see her holiday photos, she and her lovely son, Okhai seemed to be having a wonderful time in a beautiful location.

She brought some delicious filled rolls from the Surinam sandwich shop, hot spicy Tempe for Richie, for herself hot spicy prawns and I had hot spicy saltfish.

The rolls were delicious and even more so with some added hot pepper sauce made with scotch bonnets, the best hot pepper I think.

All too soon Anne had to leave she promised to come back soon which would be very nice as it is good to see people especially friends.

When Richie was about to leave with the dogs to go to the Park we noticed that the thick cloud cover had vanished and had been replaced by beautiful blue skies and sunshine.

October for most of the day and back to being August at 18.00, I don't think it got any warmer because the breeze coming in through the window is quite cool.

I've been enjoying the sunshine and blue skies which has been a really pretty sight to see at the end of the day.
