Currently peeing down. We have lovely sunshine one minute and a torrent the next. Temperature drops when it rains - there's a northerly blowing. Fortunately it stayed dry for our marketing.
Frey, piddly, grey... but due to improve for the next week. While eating pastry and drinking hot chocolate in town, I overheard the French weather man talking about snow in the Alps. Nearly made me order another hot drink.
A beautiful day but with a brisk northerly. It's the kind of wind that gives you ear-ache after a while, but the sun is still hot. Went for a walk on the beach, and there were people swimming in the white-capped waves, and horses walking in the shallows.
Beautiful. I saw the eclipse, just as it was beginning to go over from the bottom up. It was indeed a murky red-brown, but with that first bright golden edge. The stars were the most brilliant and numerous I've ever seen - I got Mr Bear up to see them. He did thank me; though having to put a very bright light on so that I didn't fall down the stairs from the mezzanine was a bit of a shock to the system. It was, as a result, a very short night.
Yes, Pete woke me, it was just as our son was going to bed! So he came out to see it too. OH SAID he had dried off the hammock but it was damp, so I stood and rested the camera on the hammock which Pete kept moving in, so pictures a bit blurred. Lovely through the binocs it was. Very orange when the eclipse was full.

I booked a table indoors, just in case.
Today? Warmer out than in.
*plus other garments
It's lovely and warm here, too, just hung out some washing. Think I'll go out for a sit.
I'm going to miss the sun over the next few months
