Shades of Pinky



Well now the rainy season has arrived and it’s a little cooler it seems my neighbours have decided the house may be getting too hot. I haven’t complained, it is in fact a cool house so quite comfortable. It would be quite light if the neighbours didn’t keep shutting the windows. Anyway the new sun blinds are up, plastic and cotton ones so no chance of any sunshine in the afternoons now. I didn’t ask and wasn’t consulted, as for the guy putting them up, check out the ladder, nice man but takes a few risks.
Just a note about the heavy rain, it is common practise here for the cows, goats etc to wander the streets and of course there are cow pats on the roads. During the dry season they just dry and turn to dust and blow away. However in the wet the roads just become covered in slurry. You have to roll your trousers up then wash your legs when you get home as you get covered! Smells bad!
