Commentary

(Summary blog only.   Last full blog was Day 0368).

Just a very short summary as I am still having problems with this website which are probably because I’ve run out of storage memory for all the photos.   I’ve bought a new hosting package with more storage and should be migrating over to it sometime soon.   I  hope it fixes the problem.

So after Val went off to work (see photo below) I ordered the new hosting package then Skyped a friend back in the UK.   An interesting chat.   Then I went off to the gym and after returning and scoffing a late lunch, did some homework in preparation for tonight’s Spanish class.

Going to sign off now, while the website is still actually working.   It’s chilli salmon again for tea tonight and I better get cooking.

Note the executive looking cars parked outside the Casino this morning.   It was because there was a major opening event of a new exhibit in the railway museum.   Val was rostered from her normal day off, and told to look extra smart for the occasion! Impressive thundery looking clouds piled up all day, but it never actually rained.   A pleasant day though – I like the contrast of blue, white and green at this time of year.
Not sure what the green and white flower in the middle of the window-box overlooking the station is.   Looks a bit like an edelweiss, but obviously it isn’t
(Later discovered it is “Drooping star of Bethlehem”, Ornithogalum nutans)
