It seems ages since I went for a walk around the streets, but so much has been going on at home. However, today the evening is so perfect for a short ramble, that I am leaving the domestic chores to the family and donning my walking shoes. The late spring sunshine is streaming through our open front door, and the sound of children playing on the cobbles outside reminds us that winter is past. Stepping into the street, and looking down the hill to the river Mersey, I can see the late sun is glistening on the water creating steaks of gold on the tops of the small waves, and the small sailing vessels skimming over this like skaters on an ice covered pond! There is not a cloud to be seen in the sky and even our grumpy next door neighbour smiled and gave me a cheery 'hello' as I past. Owing to the lateness of the hour, my walk today is shorter than usual so I had better proceed.....................................

That completes my short walk for today. The sun has already set and a clear cloudless night is in prospect. A cold northerly wind heralds a frost! I for myself am calling for a quick jug of my favourite brew before retiring. Next time I am hoping to explore EXCHANGE BUILDINGS, and in addition to telling you who works behind each door, will try to ascertain their line of business as well.
