Sky

Where did the blue sky go? It was there yesterday, I’m sure.

Being from Scotland means that there is some lag time when the weather changes in the wardrobe department. We’re that used to putting on a jacket that you’ll see lots of bemused, sweating scots in coats on the first day of any sunny spell. Normally by the evening or the next day they will have all been replaced with shorts-wearing burns victims clogging up the aisles in Tescos demanding after-sun lotion.

Today the sun went away and in true Scottish* style I was left roaming around with a tee-shirt on wondering why my hands are blue and quivering.

Hopefully the big black clouds I can see from the office window are foretelling a storm of some kind. You can’t beat a hot-weather rainpour you really can’t.

*-I’m never sure if this is meant to have a capital S. Clarification from an expert please.
