It has been a most frustrating weekend and I was unable to load this actually on the day! After a long conversation with the technical chappie at T-Mobile this morning, I have learned the our local mast was down for repairs. Anyway, that was about an hour ago and we now are all go again!!

Anni is off to the USA on Tuesday via London overnight - I hear the weather is not great where she is going but knowing her, she will make the very best she can of it. She is meeting up with several other Blippers whilst she is there and I know she is tremendously excited about that!

Weather was cloudy to start with - sun in the late afternoon (when this was taken) - and still very windy. Temperature around the mid 60s F.

Hoping you all had a less frustrating weekend than I did!
