Match weekend

Apart from preparing a Candlemass sermon, and a trip to the covered market for fruit'n veg, Friday was a quiet uneventful overcast day with light rain to discourage me from venturing far. Today the breeze was just a little warmer and no rain, so I strolled down to the promenade as far as the town centre and back, having got bored with watching the Wales Italy rugby match by the end of the first half. It was nice to hear 'Mae hen wlad fy nhadau' sung by the crowd in the Millennium Stadium back in Cardiff. The roof was closed, as the weather has been awful. So many places in Britain are suffering from floods exacerbated by high Spring tides. The weather is so much kinder here. There are occasional torrential outbursts, but still less rainwater than is desirable for the good fortunes of agriculture.
