Solstice report

[shewhomust]

We've had a sleepy weekend on Holy Island. It was one of those years when you look at your watch and say "Okay, it must be up by now!" (Give or take a gleam along the edge of that cloud, this is about as dramatic as it got). People turned up who have not been in a decade or so, and were introduced to helenraven, clearly a little taken aback to realise that they had been missing long enough that someone could become a regular in their absence. valydiarosada pleaded non-swine flu, and declined to get up for the dawn, but has been excellent company while awake; and since all of us have been falling alseep at intervals through the weekend, that's as much as you could ask.

durham_rambler and I are now in the Leaping Salmon in Berwick, having delivered helenraven to her train, bought books at the bookshop, and consumed coffee, muffins and wi-fi. Now we're ready to face the rest of the day...

That's a good picture of the usual Midsummer at Holy Island non-sunrise. :)

Thank you for a great weekend.

I'm glad you could make it! And yesterday we had lunch with desperance and la_marquise_de_ (and Gail) - your name was mentioned (quite a few times, in fact)!

That explains the Burning Ear Syndrome! :D
