Wet.

This was my morning view and although it cleared a little during the day it was much the same by the end of daylight. And it was raining for most of the time.

Not being able to work in the garden it was a good time to start the annual spring clean. Although I had hoped to start at this end of the house I've got plans for some shelves in my study first and the utility room is still a mess so I picked an easy job in the kitchen. Off came everything from the glassware shelves to be carefully washed and eventually replaced. Having put this photo up I realise I haven't yet replaced the assortment of feathers, most from the zoo, which add some colour to the shelves. We do use the wine glasses but only occasionally as we don't drink wine with our meals even though one glass a day is supposed to be good for you.

During a drier spell in the afternoon I walked down to the pharmacy to collect my prescription. I'm trying to sort it out as they gave me an extra month's worth a couple of times and also if Peter did the reordering he didn't know which ones to leave off. I'm almost sorted though it will be a few months before I need to reorder several of my medications. Naturally I had a quick walk along the beach too until it began to rain again. The tide was out so I was able to stride briskly along the sand, unlike on the cliff path where you have to watch every step.

At home I cleaned all the lids of the storage tubs before packing lids and tubs into clear plastic bags which I've stored in the loft for the time being. (Peter gave me a hand to get them up there which saved going up and down the ladder.) 

A few more photos from yesterday.

I love it when the sun shines a spotlight on the sea. That line of surf running across the sea marks the moraine spit at Wallog.

Wallog- the house is pre 1840's and there were stables and outbuildings behind the house which have since been demolished. Electricity to the property was supplied by a turbine in the stream in a dip between the field in the foreground and the house. Something people could do now I would have thought.
