Sunshine at Last !

Although it rained overnight, this morning dawned bright and clear, and we have had a gloriously sunny - although rather cold - day today.

It`s amazing how much sunshine does to brighten one`s spirits.
Over a fortnight of daily rain was making me feel rather gloomy, I have to admit :-)

Of course, the change in temperature emant that my feet were freezing in my ancient trainers, so I am now the proud possessor of a pair of German Thermal boots, guaranteed waterproof and frostproof, for the princely sum of £14.99. I wore them down to school this afternoon to pick the girls up, and I really was warm as toast.
They will probably be worn daily for the next six months now, with the possible exception of Christmas Day..........

Sounds lovely.

And, it's so English of you to use the word fortnight ;) We should use it over here. Sigh.

English? English? I don't think very many people in Wales would agree with that...

Is it Welsh? Blush, I didn't know.

Last thing I wanted to do was start a civil war on your fair isle!

Sorry about that!

I thought it was just from fourteen-night, like sennight from seven-night. Hmm. You're right. It's straight-forward and makes sense: can't be the English language. *grin*
