A life well lived is always a blessing, Ogg.
Happy Birthday to your bride.
She wanted a day out today in the open air. The weather didn't cooperate. We went to Dover, stood on the White Cliffs facing the wind and rain, and couldn't see more than a hundred yards beyond the harbour. Normally we would see France clearly.
We stood for about thirty seconds before rushing back to the National Trust's White Cliffs cafe for a hot lunch and coffee. Later we went to Dover's Christmas Market before visiting friends for more coffee.
The weather on the return journey was even worse. The outside temperature varied between 1 and 3 C.
Back home? More coffee in a warm house as the wind whistled around.
We'll go back to Dover in the Spring, and maybe cross to France for a meal. Why go to a French restaurant in England when there are dozens of them in Calais or Boulogne?
