25th December from the West Cliff Green, Bournemouth
The occasional raindrops are cool and refreshing and make goldfish mouths in the puddles. And, although it is cool and dark, the rain makes a change from the stickiness of the sick room, A woman say “Are you all right? I saw you wobbling about.” “I’ve been poorly for a few days and only just got up.” “I hope you didn’t mind.” “No, of course not, we all look out for each other on the West Cliff Green,” A young man crosses the path holding a very small dog and a pink umbrella over it. I gaze at the ocean and absorb its restful susurration before making my way home.

It rained steadily all day. And although it was warm enough to walk with your coat unbottoned, the rain dictated othdrwise. The wind gusted fitfully and the sea roared and hissed. The evening dark seemed impenetrable and deep black puddles sprang up everywhere you were wont to walk. #bournemouth #westcliff #winter #december
