Fiona and I walked around a blowing blustery Durham City under blue skies with deep dark grey cumulus clouds swooping in to rain strong showers. Lovely coloured hints of autumn matched   our happy glow . Hiking happiness the best experience of all in our 26 year long marriage. A frappuccino at Starbucks lasted long enough to avoid going to the Vintage shop with the clothes deprived imaginations of Fiona. The City was quiet and the Cathedral sombre under a massive cumulus cloud . Our prayers in the Prayer Chapel raised the glow to a bright light. Coming back along the River Wear  not yet full of the coming flood water a Woodpecker showed itself . Magic. Home now and the fresh linguine is cooking next to the tomato source . "Cop Land" a police drama about a New York cop who gradually realises his colleagues are corrupt is ready to be watched . The PSP family is rocking   but maybe not rolling as it usually does. Miles skateboarded to day at 4Motion in Darlington and Clifford chilled at home  as their  parents romped and romanced around Durham . A good day!
