The Sun Is Back ... With A Cold Wind!

The sun has returned but the wind has strengthened and swung around to the south west. The wind is is cold and lazy, it blows straight through you, not around you.

Not a lot of news. This morning's bike ride was likened to torture, cold strong winds making the trip extremely unpleasant.

Our lake here on the estate has been cleaned. It had been totally covered with red algae but the Council has had it cleaned. Unfortunately the algae could return in a matter of months. The lake needs a 'flood' to clean it right out. The muddy water is the result of the recent heavy rain.

Trish had some laser treatment carried out on her eye yesterday. It has seen a marked improvement for her but she is a little disappointed with the outcome. The lass who carried out the procedure was a little disappointed too. The cataract has been removed but the figures and projections indicated Trish's sight would be better. But being an inexact procedure the outcome has been on the worse side.

Trish has elected not to have the other eye 'done' at this stage.
