Fierce winds last night and all day: pleasant, very windy walk home, and then found I had plenty of energy for exercise. At 5pm, luckily just after I'd got home, there was a squally shower and thereafter till it was calmer.

Gave retirement arrangements some thought as I walked home along the riverside, with small, flat, wet-looking cumulus under smooth grey altostratus.

Off into town at 12.45 BST. Very annoying wind and spitting rain, doing its best to ruin my makeup.
When I got there though, a lull in the rain as forecast, and I got home dry, though much buffeted by squally wind. Rather 'Aloysius' weather, with roiling clouds and powerful sun-breaks.

Btw, have often wondered why I couldn't see the very tall pylon at the docks from my house. Although there is a steep ridge between here and there, it still seemed odd. Noticed today that I can see it when the trees aren't in leaf - drew a careful picture of the trees and buildings that line up with it. Actually it's just the very top I can see, the top 20' perhaps.

Annoyingly, it was cloudy until about 11am, and then lovely, if cold, weather. It did get quite dim around totality at 9.30. E expressed his surprise that 85% occlusion wasn't darker, so I told him how it only went to 'evening twilight' darkness with 97% occlusion in 1999.

Took advantage of the fine spring weather to wash car and give the lawns their first mow.

No engagements this weekend, and good weather forecast too. Think it may be too early to mow the lawn though.
