Brief blizzard having reverted to damp greyness the test for equanimity is weather related ... the joys of English winter ... sometimes other seasons too ... the hospitality in Durham is warm though and wonderful to catch up with a dear friend ... and a lovely daughter ... the other working all week ...a bus trip to Stanhope feels like returning home and after catching up with friends, a message arrives from Spain ... friends and erstwhile neighbours having rented their riverside cottage to a dodgy tenant are seeking a reliable house sitter ... sounds like a job for someone with recent experience in the art ...
Other reconnections in Durham, along with wardrobe expansion thanks to various charity shops and a more expensive visit for boots ... the others having worn out after good service on the many hundreds of miles in Spain and Portugal ... items best not skimped on ...
Plenty of energy for Stanhope projects, long gestating and now wanting to be born ... but that's for next week ...
