23rd October 2025...Dave's Birthday

For Dave's Birthday we went to a new restaurant in Herepian, Thai with lots of promise... unfortunately it didn't live up to expectations, but we had excellent company with Alison and Richard.

En route I took these pictures, as this was forecast as a hurricane day! 

It was a bit breezy..

All the rainbows (and there were plenty) were really low to the ground.

Difficult to see..👀 👀.

Charlie proving he can do cryptic crossword puzzles
