This was tweeted by Stephen Fry the other day – Jim Meskimen performing Clarence’s speech from William Shakespeare’s Richard III as a number of different celebrities. It’s pretty amazing.

After posting those photos that I took on my way home last night I remembered this short video I took walking home with Susan a couple of years ago. It’s called “almost that blue” because we’d just missed the moment when the sky is the colour shown in yesterday’s pics. For about ten minutes every night the sky turns the most fabulous blue just before the sun sets…

I took this short video yesterday morning around 10am at a chiringuito (beach bar) next to where I’d had breakfast. I had meant to do my usual seaside walk and get my toes wet, but it was so darned windy that I didn’t dare get to close to the water lest I got swept in…
Just look at how those beach umbrellas are flapping away! It was actually a gorgeous morning to sit out there, and the cool “poniente” wind was a welcome change after several weeks of HEAT in Sevilla, but I’m afraid you won’t be able to hear anything I was saying (just as well) or the nice Paco de Lucía music playing in the background (pity).
Got back home at mid-day to a slightly cooler Sevilla (the poniente reached this far!). But this is all going to change tomorrow as we get back to sweltering summer temps. Anyhow, got unpacked and showered and snibbled the kittehs like mad, then some grocery shopping and lunch. And after that a trip to the hospital to see my oncologist. Am now waiting for Jessica to return from Germany … tapas await us.
How was your weekend?
