At 6am it’s very pleasant and I enjoyed eating breakfast sitting on the doorstep.
By 9am there was a warm wind blowing and I decided to go with Plan B .
After a disturbed night, slight anxiety about possible new commission and it being quite hot I found it difficult to be in the mood for painting. So I read for half an hour , painted for half an hour and so carried on until about 3.30 when I gave up and decided that going out in 37C probably wouldn’t kill me.


I hadn’t realised that it was quite so cloudy and in fact it rained a bit while I was out. However today I was. ironically, dressed for the weather ( that I thought it was.) Have abandoned the arm cover up tops and marched out wearing a vest top and baggy trousers.

I didn’t much care if it rained as it was still very hot and a free shower wouldn’t have been such a bad thing.
On the way back I was passed by a convoy of beeping cars led by a bride and groom in a white sports car.
They headed off in the direction of the Chiesa Madre.
Tomorrow I have an appointment in connection with a new commission. That will be my get out and walk opportunity.
I’m tired tonight…..
Wine time now. Cheers 🍷🍷
