Another beautiful afternoon. Cool, but in a pleasantly fresh way. I just had a nice walk around the site and if I wasn't aware of the time of year, I would have sworn it was an early Spring day. You know those ones when things are starting to bud, and everything's brighter, and the cold damp of Winter is finally starting to dissipate? That's what it felt like today, rather than an early-Winter, heading-for-darkness, glum affair like what old November's used to be like.
One day I will get used to all this seasonal change, I assure you. Or maybe, at least, one day, I'll stop boring the pants off you by blogging about it so frequently.
We are doing a Zoom quiz with some of Philippa's sporty friends tonight. She hasn't been so active on the badminton (etc) front since throwing herself into Motherhood, but she still has some very good friends from that quarter who she meets up with regularly. This is the group from the sports club in North Norfolk that she knew for years before we headed South. Philippa isn't the only one who ventured away from the area, so every so often they like to all reconvene together online and make an evening of it. This time around, one of them has decided to host a Virtual Quiz Night (it's like being back in lockdown all over again, but I'm looking forward to it!)
I'm not sure how well we'll do as a team - Philippa is a bit frazzled, I'm only really useful on science, movies and the NFL, and Mathew will probably be asleep before we start. And as for Rian? Well, unless there are questions about nipples and shitting I don't think he'll be much help at all.
