The observant will have noted Soub's comment regarding the British weather. He pointed out that sunshine in one part of the UK is met by rain a mere hundred miles away, something that surprises Americans and others who have more stable weather patterns. This style of weather is typical. The Atlantic sends the leftover US storms, Hurricanes and detritus to our shores in the same manner with which English courts used to send convicts to Australia, and look what happened there. I was musing on this as I wandered about early on, the sun shining, the sky blue, and ever expanding vapour trails appearing high above. An occasional Spitfire flew noisily above preparing for the many air shows later this year. The birds sang, dogs tails wagged, women gave me the 'I want you' look. (One of these three points is erroneous ) This walk took about 20 minutes and was taken while I 'Checkdisked' the laptop which is running slowly. I made my way past the screeching kids in the gardens (Hey mum, there is a pond here, take them there!) sat in the sun for ten minutes, and mused that while I enjoyed sunshine Soub would be suffering dark clouds and rain some 150 miles further north.
Indeed while watching the Motherwell v Celtic match the commentator stopped pandering to the Celtic hordes and indicated the dark gray raindrops on the screen were being enlightened by the floodlights coming on. He added the time is twenty minutes past one o'clock. It was indeed dark and gray, although on the many occasions in which I have been at Motherwell the town was always dark and gray, but maybe that's just me. Anyway as I arrived from my short ramble I noted the sky above had changed somewhat.
It has been getting cloudier ever since, rain to follow, pah! Cumulus are building up to head south from Lanarkshire and Yorkshire and will be here soon.
David Cameron has said the WMD issue muddies the waters regarding chemical weapons in Syria, indeed it does Dave. Sharmine and Iona have their opinions on this also. Politics is indeed a murky game. Sometimes secrets are rightly kept, sometimes the UK participates in such dealings for the good of us all. Sometimes we are not so sure. These girls writing here may well have their own agenda, Sharmine appears to be on Assad's side, maybe not. The points made are interesting however.
The other day, for no obvious reason this thing has started to go slow. That is when I log on to a site it takes ages to download, when up till then it came straight through usually. After I cleaned the cache a week or two back the Facebook certainly became slow in loading, but now almost everything is slow. I've done the usual clearing out and running checks but so far nothing helps. Maybe it's just age, like me......
