September already, and, as if to welcome Spring, the sun is shining and there is the appearance of warmth in the air. Of course, that's the perspective from inside the house looking out through the window. The reality is what I experienced when I had my walk at 8 o'clock: bright sunshine, certainly, but a real chill in the air. However, it can only get better from here.
Jamie arrived ten minutes ago, realised he had left something at home and left again to collect. it. Marilyn has gone with him for a drive and a chat, leaving me to look after Archie. I'm not surprised she has taken the chance; I don't have much to say and that must be frustrating for Marilyn,
We had news last night that a friend has died in Townsville. He was a few years older than me and we met when Marilyn and I arrived at Cathedral School in 1987. Roy was the Property Manager and it was his job to get us settled in to our house on the school grounds. H must have seen how shell-shocked we were after the long drive and invited us to have dinner with them that evening. He and Marg became very close friends and we have kept in touch.
