barometric conditions...
clearing quickly. (note... 989 and rising slowly by 10.20). Thinking of devising the mcgonical scale to assess and report in greater depth and with greater accuracy on the condition of dampness... ness. Wet start to the day. 12C. Now sunny as I report. Wind is around a 3/ gentle breeze on the Beaufort Scale... (ie defined as leaves and small twigs constantly moving, light flags extended). Beaufort scale developed to report on sea conditions but invaluable for balloonists. Certainly a great drying hour for Ms McGonical as I use a 21stC travel towel in support of her own methodical preening. Should really have used the flash for a half decent image. Another time.
11:05:15: Wrexham trip next. Post-election,I am struck by the lack of real ambition evident amidst our 'political elite' who must continue to present to want to be elite and be seen to lead rather than open up to being self-aware. The new PM today, despite the blow and bluster that defies Beaufort scale as he talks on Europe sounds terrified. There are other ways to lead such as being exemplary I can see... by being exemplary... sustainable... responsible and creative in guiding and satisfying ambitions and needs. That is why we are still known as h sapiens. Coincidentally there has just been an excellent report on "Weather Conditions" on BBC Radio 4 (ends 10.00am). Worth listening to on-line. So I've changed title from "soggy conditions."
