1823 – A midday stroll

I have no idea what footfall in the high street is normal between 12 – 2 ish, so I am assuming that today was normal for the time of the year. I make that point because when I went out first thing to put some rubbish out I said to Elayne that the sun was out and bright and it was a glorious morning, but the air was freezing, and by the time I went for the walk, it hadn’t warmed up that much – if at all, actually.

I would expect there to be more people about, it is after all lunch time. Even with the temperature as it was (what was the temperature? I don’t know). there were people sat at tables outside, and the cafes looked relatively busy.

I ended up at the ferry terminal, there’s some maintenance going on along the bridge to the pontoon I did read something about it a few days ago, I’ll have to see if I can find it.

i walked into the Falklands Gardens and had a look around people were on the phone, having lunch, or just enjoying the day.

I noticed the little boat which appeared to be moving at quite a clip. Apparently there is a speed limit in the harbour, 10 knots, but I don’t think it applies everywhere, I’m sure it was going faster than that, and nobody seemed interested.

It was a very pleasant walk.

I just want to write, but I prefer to stay away from controversial topics like politics. I am happy to confess that at the moment, I am writing for me. If you enjoy my writings, and I hope you do then that is all the better.
