We are back to cloudless dull skies this morning. Yesterday it rained more than once. After a spell of wonderful almost summer weather, it was not quite ready, so we have the uncertain Spring weather again. I was so ready for a journey yesterday afternoon, but just as I was getting ready we had thunder and the heavens opened. I retired to my computer and the sun came out again, so being a risky sort of person made myself on my way with some clouds hanging over my head.
I had to make it a journey within range of getting home again if the rains came down, so did the cemetery chicken run. Chickens can be very inventive and if the famer parks a cart in their territory, they move in and take over. Perhaps they like to be in high places now and again.
It seems to be crow weather at the moment and I hear them all day with their cawing noises. They perch on rooftops and keep an eye n the humans. We have many living in a colony in the trees on the edge of our estate. It must be nesting time at the moment, but I have never seen baby crows learning to fly. I think they are born already fully grown and the only things they have to practice it developing their voices that we can all hear them.
Today is again another “normal” day with a shopping trip. Since my last Friday marathon on my own for the long week-end shopping, I have been isolated from the human race, only seeing Mr. Swiss and my cat. I had a visit from son No. 2 and family so life was not boring. Today I will go shopping and be amongst the public again.
I just got a report from my Avira virus programme that the hosts datei is blocked. Had a quick look in Auntie google and it seems that the big update from Windows 10 is imminent. Mr. Swiss already has it, but today seems to be my day. I sometimes wish they would do these things quietly in the background without telling us all about it. Mr. Swiss got his update a couple of days ago and said it is a big one with questions to be answered. I just hope my computer works again afterwards. I never have this problem with my Apple computer.
And now it become critical as Windows tell my the new update is ready, I am not ready, but seem to have no choice.
I will leave you with a photo of some poppies growing in a garden and hope you all have a nice smooth uneventful day. Mine is already exciting thanks to Window and its annoying update.
Cemetery chickens … sounds like a good name for a punk rock band …..

Although the chickens are not in the cemetery, but next to it

It’s been gray here for the last week, with some spots of rain on Monday. It’s supposed to clear up for next week. Windows updated my computer yesterday — I haven’t seen much difference yet, although there was a screen that showed some new features!

Our weather day turned out better than I thought it would, although I stayed at home and did a bit of tidying up. My Windows update ran quite smoothly and not big events. I was asked a few questions, and that was all. I wonder what little surprises they have now hidden in a few little corners.

We too have unpredictable weather, day after day. It sometimes feels more like a mild November and then we get a heat wave and heavy summer storms – a bit like world’s politics and every country’s leadership 🙂

We get a few rain showers now and again, but it is warm enough to sit on the porch and have our meals outside. The garden is growing well and my apple trees are full of growing fruit. I hope the hailstorms stay away

Those poppies are much more fun than an update.

The update was nothing special, but the poppies are
