Nigel and I have just watched South Pacific

I was sitting with mum at the care home this afternoon when her great grandson (my oldest grandson) rang to give us a review of the remake of West Side Story.

When I used to look after grandson twice a week before he started school we (probably quite inappropriately) watched West Side Story or part of it nearly every week. All life, love, prejudice and pathos is there in that one superb story with the wonderful words, music and dancing. They don’t make ‘em like that any more!

And another egg was laid in the polytunnel

Then avian flu meant that all poultry were obliged to be housed under cover until further notice. But this week the birds have settled down and started laying again. Hooray!

Anyone know how to milk a cat? Nigel, out you come !

Start the morning in sunshine and watch the weather change dramatically to thick fog
