A Beach Walk.

There was more variety in the cloudscape this morning but this was the most blue I saw all day. For the rest of the time it was mostly grey with a bitterly cold wind blowing from the east.

Since it needs doing I carried on spring cleaning in our bedroom and today I tackled my bedside cupboard (I've let Peter know that it will be up to him to do his cupboard, if he wants.) I emptied out all the white tubs that sit on the shelves of the former tv unit, had a sort out and gave everything a wipe. Some old tablets have been put aside to take to the pharmacy for disposal and a few items can go to the charity shop. 

So that everything had time to dry and because I don't like staying inside I took myself off for a beach walk in the afternoon.

Or rather a meander around the rock pools. They are forever changing as the sea brings in or takes away the sand and the camera gives me an excuse to peer into the pools to see what is there.

I finished off with a short walk along the edge of the waves.

Back home, once I'd put everything back in my bedside cupboard I did my second set of exercises for the day. I prefer not to do them just before going to bed as some of them are quite challenging. I had Radio 4 on and I can highly recommend Natalie Haynes Stands Up For The Classics. She retells stories from the Greek classics in a brilliantly funny way. If you can't find it on i-player this link should get you to the podcasts.

Our supper tonight will be more vegetable curry. We still had same left in the fridge so I added extra peppers, potatoes and mushrooms. I sometimes tell people that I don't cook any more, 20 odd years of cooking three meals a day for the family was quite enough thank you but that isn't quite correct. I make porridge for both of us every morning, make my supper of mainly boiled veg with something easy like fish or cheese, keep Peter in Bara Brith and every now and again make something for both of us that is usually enough for several meals. And of course cook when we have visitors. I suppose what I should say is that generally I don't cook Peter's supper unless he wants the same as me. But on the whole although I like food it's not worth the effort to do anything elaborate. There are lots of better things to do with my time.
