The sky is cloudy today. There is low cloud and fog. I can see them all around, drifting in the breeze. The colour today is grey. I cannot see the sea. Is there a sailing boat on it? Who knows? I can’t see the new housing estate either. That’s no great loss! Trees at the top of the hill have almost disappeared. Sometimes they are visible, and then gone again. We walked on another hill and lots of birds came across the hedge. They are all black and bigger than swallows. I thought of a film by Hitchcock – The Birds! But these didn’t attack us. They settled on the electricity wires, without fear. We didn’t know what was on the other side of the hedge. Perhaps the farmer had disturbed the ground with his machine. Would you like to see bright colour? Perhaps scarlet bryony?
