I don't know what the weather is like where you live but here there is a storm raging outside with 80mph winds and lashing rain. So tonight I am dreaming of summer weekends away sitting on a quayside something like this and having a cool beer. The photograph is Copenhagen.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.
