How Lovely

I've just been sitting out on the balcony and it is such a nice night. Not a breath of wind, fairly warm and a clear sky.

I don't know too much about stars but I could clearly see Orion's belt and sword. Hopefully, the weather may start to improve now that January is almost done. Mainland Spain is suffering from gale force winds at the moment with around 9 people dead. Val, in Canada, has snow and it's -25.

Living in Tenerife has it's advantages!

Mainly Weather

It has been a funny sort of week. Hurricane warnings, thunder, high winds and torrential rain. It was glorious this afternoon and now the rain again!

At least it saves the local council having to water the poinsettias. They do look lovely and I reckon that seeing them is one of the nicest things about Christmas.

I'm not a great fan of the festive season, especially now that I live so far away from my family. We are going to Caron's house this year and Dave is cooking the turkey. Guess who is in charge of the trifle?!
