The weather has turned, and I'm looking at an overcast sky with a few chinks of brightness in between. Overnight, we had a little rain which disappeared to bother the mainland by mid morning. Temperatures remain moderate, at 12C / 54F. Although it is very nice to have 21C / 70F, as is forecast for southern England, I prefer the 12C for mid- to late April.
A British soldier was shot in Afghanistan - but the bullet just passed through his helmet, missing his head by 2 mm. Although shaken up, the man resumed his duties within the hour. He is hailed as the luckiest soldier alive.
Good Monday morning Guido, we're supposed to be in the mid 70's today. It rained off & on Friday but the weekedn was glorious. I even managed to get the front & back yards mowed after church on Sunday. Wow, that British soldier had an angel on his shoulder for sure! Linda in Washington
ReplyDeleteWhat a coincidence I was just reading about the soldier when low and behold I glanced up at the news and there is relating what had happened. Lucky lad...
