The weather is changing day by day. yesterday it was a lovely sunny day, just right for a walk, today dull and gloomy, so a day indoors.
I was ten minutes into the walk when I came across a young man in his little pickup truck, I have seen him before, he works for Lord Sheffield who owns the estate. He stopped to chat. What a nice young man he is, 17 years old, loves his job, goes to college two days a week to study land management, has a girlfriend and a dog. I am nosey you see. It was refreshing to have a grown up conversation with a level headed and interesting teenager. I hope he does well for himself in his career.
I had to up my pace after that. After standing talking for half an hour there was a chance that I might run out of daylight again. I marched on, not stopping for the rest of the walk.
The sun was going down just as I was arriving back in the village, and the moon was visible.
The floodlit church looks mysterious. After lunch today I went into the kitchen and gave it a good going over. I do that every so often, when I am fed up of the mess. All is tidy again now.
Once again I am sitting on the cheap office chair, both cats are occupying the best ones.
That's about it. Enjoy your weekend. Thanks for popping in. Toodle pip. ilona
A chat with a motivated and friendly teen gives us hope for the future. The church does look moody, like it belongs in Midsomer Murder shows.
ReplyDeleteI was really impressed with his politeness, and rational thoughts.
DeleteWasn't that a gorgeous moon with two stars out last night?!! I saw that from clear over here in Maryland, USA. It was a lovely clear night here too.
ReplyDeleteI like a moon shaped moon. The sky was clear here as well.
DeleteThe church photo reminds me of Tutbury church.And how nice to have a conversation with a level headed young person.My Grandson is like this.Hard working,never been in trouble and a joy to talk to.Where as some young ones where I live just seem interested in taking drugs and breeding more kids just to get more benifit money.I have noticed it starting to get a touch darker when I have been heading home at 4 oclock so I head for home at 3.30 now.I feel safer then and it gives me a bit more time for getting dinner and settling down for the evening in my fleece onsie.I feel as though I spend more time wearing that than I do my normal clothes,lol.It is a Harry Potter one that my Grandaughter was getting rid of because she is nearly 19 and felt that she was too old to wear it..well I am 65 and quite happy too snuggle down in it,lol.Have a great weekend,xx
ReplyDeleteI must go out a bit earlier so I can get back before dark. Trouble is everything is last minute with me. Now I have changed the time on my watch to the exact correct time, that might help a bit.
