I began my day by watching the ITV recording of last night’s rugby World Cup match between England and Argentina.
Although the air remained humid, the temperature hot, the breeze absent, we did at last receive rain, albeit warm.
It continued to require an effort to catch raindrops with my camera; the resultant images bearing titles in the gallery.
This afternoon I dozed through the rugby match between Japan and Chile, then gave my undivided attention to the game between Scotland and South Africa.
For dinner this evening Jackie produced her classic cottage pie; tasty ratatouille; crunchy carrots; and firm broccoli, with which she finished the Zesty and I drank François Dubessy GSM.
By this time the skies had darkened, the temperature dropped by several degrees, and a cool, light, breeze blew.
