Nass

That's the German word for "wet", which today has been. Very nass. Consequently we have not ventured far. These very colourful plants are growing in the garden of our neighbours. I think they might be a relation of cabbage but I'm fully prepared to accept I've got that wrong. I think it'll probably look better in big.

A quiet day wrestling with the Guardian crossword - it won, I'm short by two clues - and other non-essential timepass activities. Can't say I mind days like that from time to time.

I've had this song in my head today. Heard it in the car yesterday and it refuses to go away. It's sung by Rahat Fateh Ali Khan and I think it's magic.
