I’ve never been a poker player but I figure that’s what nature’s been playing this week with the weather.  Saying one thing and doing another.  Whilst the barometer shows high pressure we are blanketed in cloud.  When the forecasters say rain and wind, the sun comes out to shine.  I was hanging out on the veranda watching the sun come up and wondering what game the weather might play with me today.

As it turned out it didn’t matter that much.  For whatever the weather I was stuck in the office working all day but not before I battled with the bassets on a walk which they declared was too hard work on account of the hot sun beating down on them.  I couldn’t disagree although the chilly wind lashing my shorts exposed knees was cooling me off nicely.
