Thought for the day :"Last night my partner was complaining that I never listen to them… or something like that."
Thought we may get away without rain - but not to be...
We are on Day 3 Rain - Day 0 Dry...
But got up early enough to finally get around to clearing the ducks and chickens and Squeak Pea the pea chick .. took a fair period of time as there was a lot of muck out there ...
Walked the dogs and got up to Tom and Jay to finally put the problem of Nancy's windscreen to bed - Autoglass phoned at 10am saying that they could not do the work if it was raining as the canopy they have is too small
Tom removed the roof rack and we all kept our fingers crossed and luckily stayed dry long enough to get the old screen out - once that was done - he was committed to putting back.
In other news...
Born on this day 1892 in Bloemfontein, South Africa,
JRR (John Ronald Reuel) Tolkien, the author of The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion.
Tolkien, whose fiction is influenced by Wales, is known to have loved the Welsh landscape and its language. For example, the Elvish language, Sindarin, sounds very much like Welsh and many of his place names have similar Welsh equivalents e.g. Crick Hollow (Crickhowell).
