Today has been a better day, because I took a trip out solo.  Feeling a bit better, maybe I was feeling a little hemmed in, who knows.  These two photos are overlooking St Ives Bay, taken outside one of the properties that I lived in when I dwelt in St Ives.  I tried to get a photo of the jinxed place (nicknamed 9 Grimmauld Place), only to find that the road was closed and there wasn't any parking nearby.  There is a referendum going on re St Ives and the 'second home' debacle, which is leeching the town.

Spring is here, in anycase - seriously hoping that it brings good news.  As previously stated, Hubby's tests are tomorrow and I have fingers/knees/anything else crossed.

St Ives Sept 2014 028

No guesses where I have been - the place is practically on the doorstep.  I am out tomorrow too, but somewhere else.  Will post some more pix as to where tomorrow.  Meanwhile, under the cut, a couple of photos. Rest are at my Flickr site ----------> https://www.flickr.com/photos/schnowbaby/ :-)

This is St Ives, Cornwall (taken yesterday) - the town nearest to where I live. You wouldn't think that this is the place that has had at least four bouts of storm and tidal flooding over the past few days. There has been film footage of water lapping across the roads and into pubs, clubs, restaurants and shops. We are being continually battered by terrible weather, interspersed with blue skies and gorgeous sunshine.  I drove down yesterday to see the state of the town: indeed, there were mopping up operations in hand, clearing dead sandbags and trying to shore up (pardon the pun) business premises with planks etc.

Anyway, the rest of St Ives in February are at my flickr page http://www.flickr.com/photos/schnowbaby/sets/72157640433295883/
