Yes, we’re always complaining about the weather here. We’ll now take this opportunity to complain again, in particular because last<\/i> year’s weather was wonderful, on the 7th of September! We got out into Kelvingrove Park, saw bumblebees, flowers, and odd things, like the Bank of India, a discarded box of Turkish Delight … which we always wonder about: “who eats that stuff? After the Chronicles of Narnia, and that wicked child being tempted into following the White Queen because he loved the stuff, who would buy it?”<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

This year, it’s already started the bluster and the rain, so much so as to have turned T’s umbrella inside out with its gustiness, as we were on our way to Ikea. Our friends from<\/i> here are complaining, too, which makes us feel a bit better: it’s not just us, being Californian, that makes the weather in Glasgow seem awful.<\/p>\n

This week, D’s back at it, going up to the University for a couple of days, even though school doesn’t officially<\/i> start until the last week of September for him. He has to mark a Master’s dissertation, have meetings, and those sorts of things before<\/i> the term starts. And then, he gets to look forward to his own work, and sitting in on a class of qualitative analysis (yay!) for the term.<\/p>\n

One of our friends, who lives in Dundee, remarked that this had been an awful Summer, to which we replied, “there was a Summer?” Another year has gone by. We’ve been here, now, for two solid years. Another 2 years, 3 months, and D will have his PhD, meaning that he can finally quit<\/b> school, and go on to other things! What? Who knows! But wherever we go, we do know that we’d like to put in an early request for better Summers, and less rain.<\/p>\n
