Thursday, April 9/2026


It rained in the night so we awake to see the mountain and clouds reflected in the water on the terrace tiles. Can see that the ideal way to photograph this would be lying prone on the wet tiles but my commitment to photography is insufficient. 

Sunny all day, though, and the sheets dry in no time. 

Reaching the point of looking into the fridge and realising that everything there has to be consumed - or otherwise disposed of - in the foreseeable future. Fortunately excess butter and cheese translate fairly satisfactorily into rock cakes and cheese biscuits. Celery?
