Good morning from Felixstowe. 40mph gusts and scattered showers today - but feeling like I want to go out. Might go for a stomp by the sea, and find somewhere to duck into for mid-morning coffee and cake. Stay safe folks!

I’ve just done the same! It’s blowing a gale down here in Hastings. Lovely!!! I live a good stormy and rainy day by the sea. I’m funny that way πŸ’…πŸΌπŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦πŸ’¦

Just in. Super blowy and very invigorating! Humid though. I'm steaming now. Nice!

I was damp and steaming in that cafe too. But home and dry now and working on some last minute tidying up of my latest book. I shall be glad when it’s out and done and dusted. Still waiting for some copyright clearance for one verse of a John Betjeman poem. Yawn! πŸ₯±

It's storming here - I've taken refuge under the duvet with the blind down and the curtains shut and I'm staying here til it's over. If I'm going to be taken, this is how I want it to happen. Remember me with clean vest and pants. πŸ˜‚

She got bored. I can hear her crunching biscuits down the hall.

I hear Harvey doing that. He’s really crafty and creeps in, munches a few biscuits and then clears off before the flappy flap gets locked. 🀣🀣

Everywhere is shut today! Well pretty much. I'm not usually here on a Wednesday so not Au fait with what's open midweek, and I guess with the rough weather some extra people haven't opened too. The one cafe was rammed with the fried breakfast crew. Lol.

I think I'd brave the chaos for a fried breakfast at the moment! Hope you have a good rest of your day.

I would recommend places but my Felixstowe knowledge is about 30 years out of date!

It's all changed love. No boating lake. No M&S. No Coop. No banks! But I like what's here x
