Dear All

Hello

Its that time again!

This months full moon is in the astrological sign of Pisces.

It is termed as the last full moon of the summer.

Pisces is seen as a fixed and mutable sign. It relates to water.

You may be feeling more emotional than usual and fragile then normal.

Try to put an end to disputes and keep problems in proportion.

Because you are more sensitive, make sure you check any agreements, legal or otherwise, for mistakes and errors.

Any opportunity to attend a local outdoor event, weather permitting, will make you feel calmer.

Take gentle care
Love Elizabeth, EOS

Thank you, Elizabeth. Today (Sunday) I had hoped to go to Hemsby on the coast for Herring Day, but sadly the weather was diabolical. I don't know if it went ahead but I couldn't face getting soaked. Such a shame as the money goes to the Lifeboat in Hemsby, I think. They do amazing work, not only on the sea, but helping those whose holiday homes and permanent homes on the dunes have been washed away by storm tides over the years.

Might try to get out Monday if it stays dry

Hope you manage to get out and about

Hello Purple,

The weather hasn't been that good in London.

A total washout.

Lifeboats are so important and with the hot weather earlier in the summer, they were certainly in need.

Take gentle care
Best wishes
Elizabeth, EOS

Our local paper says that 30 tons of herrings were sold (cooked in oatmeal) and they raised a good amount of money. Photographs didn't show rain so I am cross that I chickened out of going.

They held a special fundraising day a few weeks ago and raised a lot of money too, Hemsby is not a big town but a long established holiday destination for many years, with wooden bungalows in the dunes, to stay in. It was a big part of my childhood and we stsyed in those chalets several times. Outside loos, no running water but great fun.

Sadly many of the bungalows have been washed into the sea now from rough tides, so the shoreline is very different but there are still lots of places to stay and people come every year to holiday. Long may it continue but they need help with sea defences which are currently funded by donations and fundraising.
