NaBloPoMo #6

The weekend has been punctuated by windy and at times wet weather, but at the moment of typing (Sunday evening, 9.30pm), we have lost the wind. It has had an impact on the ferry services, affected by swell conditions - although I cannot imagine that conditions were all that swell once out to sea. I don't mind a good blow every once in a while. It's November, and that's the time of year we get them. 

Covid is still on the march in this island, with well over thirty cases each day. Most of them youngsters. The vaccination campaign appears to keep the lid on numbers of hospitalisations. We are not rid of it. 

Last night saw a pretty high tide, and we were on warning for potential flooding. When I went out at the point of high water, the levels remained below the quays, and all the fuss was precautionary - but fortunately for nothing.
