Blue
After an eternity of rain (50 continuous days), then the worst winter and snow in a hundred years, I went outside today to find Brixton lit up with brilliant sunshine and blue skies. I have been aching for some warmth since I arrived here a few months ago and today, finally, it was warm enough for me just stroll around my neighbourhood, soaking up the sun.
Perhaps I am fussy, but I don't mean the oppressive humidity of Singapore, or the bone-dry 44 degree oven of Melbourne, I just want a moderately dry 25-30 degrees, with a cool evening breeze, the weather my Brazilian friend is having over her summer. Thats the weather I want right now...
But perhaps I am just being overly wishful today under the blue sky...
I get that way sometimes :)

So what's happened in the meantime? Come on. Don't keep us guessing.
You have a real empathy and your blog is written with wit and sadness all rolled up into 1. I have read through your last years of entries and laughed, cried, shouted and giggled (sometimes all at the same time and it was not a pretty site!). You have the ability to engage not just the mind but the heart - and this is not something you can learn, but something you are. Thank you for being you in this blog
Walt, how are you?
I've lost your email address.
Drop me a line,Kath
