Rainy Saturday

Hello there. Today it was our intention to go to London; Richard was interested in visiting the Tate Modern. Unfortunately, our local railway system is frequently out of use at weekends, in particular Bank Holiday weekends. Apparently, the railway lines are in desperate need of repair and the most convenient time for this to be done is when people would like to visit our capital city. We must have the lousiest, most inefficent lines in the universe. Instead of a straightforward train journey, London requires going on the bus, the train, and the underground. So, we went to Ipswich again for the second time this week and Tate Modern had to do without us. It rained quite heavily, but better weather is predicted for tomorrow and Monday. Tuesday it will be the first of June and the weather is unnaturally cold for this time of the year. One never knows whether to wear one's mink or a bikini. Goodnight.
