I got a couple of e-mails from a regular blog watcher in Seattle this morning, she is teacher and has a Sawrey notice board at her school.
It was wild and windy overnight but the sun is out at the moment, I am going to try and fix a section of guttering at Margaret's, she gets soaked going up and down the steps to the door.
Everybody is up and out this morning, making the best of the day.
