Gorgeous Weather



Good evening,

Today, in Fareham, the temperature topped out at 20 degrees centigrade. Lovely. We had planned to go on a picnic, and had it all ready to go. The day started out well, and I cycled 2 miles to the 'local' coffee shop, bakery and florist to pick up coffee (duh), muffins and a flower to lay a breakfast tray. I learned a valuable lesson here-impromptu coffee collection is not truly viable.


About half of the coffee made it home. The cardboard cups are waxed on the inside, not the outside. A few bumps caused the coffee to spill over and leave the cup soggy and flexible-same with the cardboard holder the drinks were in.Oh well, I'll plan that better in the future. :-)

After that though, the day sort of ran away with us. We didn't go for a picnic but did head out to explore our local green spaces at about 4. We found a lovely park just about 2 miles from our house, and lay out on a picnic rug and read for a couple of hours. I think we'll take the picnic to the beach tomorrow.
