Weather – Page 3 – the dim pause

So wrapped up in Euro 24 football that I forgot about cricket. Today is the start of the England v West Indies Test series.

The first Test match at Lord’s will be the final international match for England’s all-time leading wicket-taker James Anderson.

I will be listening to TMS on the radio for most of the day and possibly catching a little TV coverage. Just hope the weather remains clear enough for the day’s play to go ahead.

I was meant to be going to a concert at Chepstow Racecourse this evening to see Hozier and Brittany Howard 🎵

The event was cancelled by the organisers at lunchtime today due to flooding at the venue. We had very heavy rain for several hours last night. Summer in Wales! 🌧️😔

After a birthday day of beach, beer and pizza will be finishing with cheese (Perl Wen and Perl Las) and wine. Then hot tub in the dark, hopefully with some clear and starry skies. Evening weather forecast looks good 😊 🌌

A table set with a bottle of Barolo wine, two glasses, a box of crackers, a plate of cheese, a bowl of olives, and a small jar of pear and date chutney.

View from the bedroom window. Woke up to a little unexpected snow this morning ❄️

A snowy garden with a winding driveway amongst trees and bushes, a dusting of snow on the ground and rooftops, under a partly cloudy sky.

Frosty morning. On my way to Cardiff for an Escape Room followed by a bottomless prosecco brunch 🚂🗝️🥂

Watching the England v New Zealand 🏏 ODI on TV. It’s being played at Sophia Gardens in Cardiff, weather is fantastic and I’m wishing I was there. Trouble is that I’ve been to cricket matches in September that have been damp, cold and a bit miserable so didn’t bother to get tickets when they were on sale earlier in the year 😠
