Filthy weather here in the Marches. And a filthy temper to go with it. Wind does not improve my temperament.

Snarlity.

I’ll avoid the obvious witticism.

Strong winds (hope that is a safer way of expressing this) always make me edgy and anxious about nothing in particular.

Yep,exactly so, and that is what makes me inclined to bite.

Well avoided, btw. And the word I was groping for was ‘disposition’.

I have had to replace 2 light bulbs here today. The long - lasting kind, but they all go together

Sigh

I woke up, & the Stygian gloom was just too much.

The Consultant doesn’t want to see me before the 15th, Twellsy.

I feel worse in the evenings, but that’s not surprising when I have been pottering about all day.

How often is Fred the Alpaca shorn, Twellsy?

I don’t know exactly - I assume once a year shearing is what alpacas have

I really like this farm - local and earning their keep with alpaca walks and appearances and they use the yarn and get local knitters and crafters to make it into small items

Years ago when I knit my own alpaca cardigan the yarn was 20euro for 50 grammes

I used 20 balls of it in my cardi

The heat in the alpaca yarn is amazing for such lightweight fibres
