Sun-dried shallots

Paradise: when the sun is out and you have a whole square to dry your harvest.

Here comes the sun!

The Observatory noted that this has been the gloomiest November in 127 years. It said: "The total duration of bright sunshine captured in the month was 101.4 hours, a record low for November since 1885.The monthly mean relative humidity was 81 per cent, tying with that of 1960 as the highest record for November."

After close to three weeks of rain, the sun finally came out today. No wonder everyone was looking cheerier  on the ferry today. Now to get the mould off my walls and clothes.

After weeks of miserable weather (notice how uninspired I was at posting?), Mui Wo is basking in the sun again.

Isn't it wonderful how the two sunny days have coincided with the weekend? The restaurants are packed and hikers are out in force... it's perfect holiday weather!

Some sun-worshippers even braved the cool sea water.

This is the view from our window today. The sun is out, the sea is blue and you can see all the detail on the hills. Is there any wonder we don't want to go out today?
