I woke up to find that the local representatives of Burglars, Pilferers Inc had excelled themselves last night. Flinging wide the bedroom curtains, I couldn’t help noticing that the beach and sea had gone missing.
Hills and buildings on the other side had also been taken, and even some of our trees were being affected.
This may be a common sight in many parts of the world, but it is something that hardly ever happens here. Strangely enough, it was quite localised. Apparently we were an isolated area with our heads in the clouds.

Big mist-take. Don’t leave your hills, buildings and other views outside the house after nightfall.

They tend to wander off on their own, then, but generally come back at dawn. This time I imagine they overslept.

It is a sight I often see here during the wintertime. I wonder if added pollution has anything to do with it?
LikeLike
Most likely, but this had a fairly clean appearance – not like the smog which settles over the city from time to time.

Fog can be fun . . . if you’re not in need of the view.

Yep, very common in our Welsh hills, this damp swirling cotton wool stuff. Mind you, we have two types, ‘mist’ (just like wot you had) and ‘Welsh mist’ (light rain which emerges straight out of the enveloping cloud onto you).
‘Head in the clouds…’ I trust that’s not a metaphor.

We noticed today what an amazing damping-down effect (haha) it has on sound. The sea went quiet. The traffic went quiet.

Thankfully we had a glorious day, while you were lost in fog. It is a regular visitor to these shores and well outstayed all welcome this past winter. Many a day I could not see beyond the end of my nose!

Given my current feeble status, hanging onto any part of me to keep me upright is a bonus. My upper body strength is sadly underdeveloped. I joke not. I’m not up to slapping. I’d fall over 😀
