Heavy rain and gale force winds persisted overnight and into the day, although we were treated to
some sunshine in most changeable weather as the afternoon went on, following a trip to Pennington’s Morrison’s to buy bread and tea.
This horse rider acknowledged with a wave each driver of passing traffic who slowed and gave him a wide berth on Pitmore Lane,
which, like a number of roads retained waterlogged stretches through which motorists, crossing tentatively sprayed water, rippling the surfaces.
Cattle alongside Holmsley Camp Site off Forest Road, included the English Longhorn variety with their crumpled horns.
Along Beckley Common Road we scattered a flock of pheasants.
This evening we are on our way to dine at Britannia Thai Restaurant in Milford on Sea.
