An overcast start to the day with strong gusts of wind eventually blowing the cloud away. Cool but sunny.
Housework after breakfast. Then I cooked lunch using millet instead of rice for a change with savoury cannelli beans and veg. Afterwards I recorded and edited next week's Morning Prayer and made a start on the video slide show before going out for a lap of Pontcanna Fields. When I arrived at Blackweir Bridge, the sun was just a the right angle to reveal a group of salmon in the pool. I took a good photo of the largest of them, about two thirds of a metre long, as the light glinted on its back. Yesterday I spotted a gull trying to swallow an eel it had caught in the shallows at the base of the fish ladder, and took a photo. The eel was still wriggling. Although the image is quite sharp, it's not clear that it's an eel and alive.
Clare went out to choir practice at six, and I binge-watched the remaining episodes of 'Pale Mountains' over supper and the rest of the evening until bed time. Four crime stories interlinked and related to a past crime which was covered up, and on top of that, two stories about children born out of wedlock finding their birth mothers, plus stories of love and friendship, identity loyalty and trust. A very intricate absorbing plot with many twists and turns. Despite the tragedies and betrayals a feel-good ending, with music to match.
