Starting now.

Word picture.

I'm sat in my office.

It's dark. Really dark.

The sea is 30 metres away. And getting closer...

The floor is shaking like a shaky thing at a convention of St. Vitus' dancers.

The roof is whistling.

The windows are wobbling.

The rain is almost as loud as everything else.

Y'know, there are times I'm really glad that I know there are limits...

...I just wish Mother Nature knew the same.

I am worried about my entry. I have nothing in the can, and am having a total lack of inspiration. I am off for a drive around the Island in the next couple of days to see if I can capture anything half decent.
