New Month!!

I went for a walk today to see if I could spot any Spring flowers breaking through on the hedgerows. It was bloody freezing, with a bitter wind and almost constant rain. I was forgetting that March in Norfolk does tend to be the tail-end of Winter, rather than the early onset of Spring. I hate it when it’s wet and windy. We’ve had some real wintry weather in the past few months, which I don’t mind so much. What gets on my tits is when it’s grey, overcast and wet, especially when it stays that way for weeks on end, which is can do quite often in the UK. But enough of this gloom – with my new-found determination to stay always cheerful I am predicting warmer, drier weather ahead, and a chance to dig my bike back out before the weekend.
Ted’s son Simon has contacted me by e-mail and asked if I’d like to go to a football match with him. Apparently Norwich City are doing very well at the moment and he has a spare ticket for the next home match, and apparently at Christmas I told him I’d love to go along sometime. I know that sounds unlikely for me, a man with the same level of interest in football as a prawn has in Marie Rose sauce, but it was Christmas Day, and much imbibing of vino had occurred. I didn’t like to sound ungrateful, so I replied with an enthusiastic ‘Yes!’
Rory mixing with soccer fans? The result could be the same as that time I mixed potassium with water in the lab at uni.
