Sunday is supposed to be a day of rest but in this case I don't think it's going to happen. Last night I noticed a text message from a group of friends saying they wanted to go down to the south coast of Dorset to hang out on a beach, would I care to join them. It's a lovely idea but I don't know whether I want to sit there in the rain and with the forecast not being brilliant I decided against....
So the time of siting down at my computer to write this entry is 7:00 p.m. on a rather cloudy and almost autumn-like day.
