This is the aftermath of a visit to the Polly Tea Rooms in Marlborough today. Such a grim day today as the predicted storms began to drive in from the South West. In the morning it was just windy but by the time we ventured out to do some Christmas visiting of friends the first phase of the storm was really picking up. The 10 minute drive to Marlborough became a 40+ minute drive due to the main road being blocked. That said I'd not have missed it for the world, as extreme weather excites me. We got to Marlborough and sitting in a friends house in the High Street all was calm. We partook of chat and tea before heading back out into the deluge to walk the 20 paces into the Polly Tea Room to join different friends for coffee, cake and more festive chat. Looking out the window the rain was gusting along the street at a rate of knots, but as should happen at Christmas joining friends warms the heart, and is exactly what this season is about.
