Menoooorrkk... Crummy Climate
I arrived back in Dunoon after deluges in Edinburgh and on the trip home via Lanark... and it continued... and continued...and...
I parked down at the West Bay end of town and watched the deluge blur the views out, and got on with some yarn work and listening to podcasts/audiobooks, binge-watching streamers, and generally wondering if I should be building an ark. Or at least some floaters for The Grey.
Mac1 arrived in Dunoon to house/dog sit for a pal, and for that first week, could hardly get Barney out of the house!
I was supposed to go there to learn his routine so I could take over on a couple of the days when she has other commitments. By last Saturday, there were breaks between hosings... so Mac1 and Barney walked down to me and visited in the van...
Barney is a Himalayan Terrier and is a total mooch! He loves to snuggle on the couch, enjoys an ear tickle and an under-chin massage. He's a very good boy 87% of the time.
More on Barney and his home next week!

Next off the line of June composers is Joseph Martin Kraus, born on the 20th of June, 1756, in Miltenberg, Germany. His style falls, then, into the true Classical category... think the likes of Mozart, Beethoven, and Haydn. Personally, I feel a little towards the Classical period a bit like I do about contemporary "pop" music. It absolutely has its place, but I very much pick and choose and need to be in the mood! This short item gives you a taste of the rather florid style of this composer. How about you? Does it inspire you to go find more?
