Was outside yesterday messing with the TV aerial when a huge flock of flamingos flew overhead. I didn't have the camera, so can't prove it. There is currently water in the lake, so the birds will hang around while they can eat the mollusks (I thought it was spelled with a C, but the spellchecker says no). A local farmer was telling me last night that flamingos "just know" when it's worth staying. This time last year they had already left without laying, so maybe there's something in what he says. It would be really great if it were to rain a lot.
Watch this space...
Today is the last thursday for hunting with shotguns (mostly rabbits). So from now on it should be safe to go into the countryside thursdays and weekends.
Hooray!
Always a sad time, the first week in November. Just closed the swimming pool. Water was lovely and warm still, but outside it's cold and windy.
Nobody booked in this next week.
Was looking forward to a little holiday.
Apparently it's going to be cloudy and rainy all week.
Ah well, can't really complain, after such a horribly hot, dry summer.
