1 – the car thermometer says 13 degrees, that's positively tropical.

2 – kids are out in our village learning to ride bikes properly under the national curriculum, this makes me happy.

3 – i just discovered the Hozelock Ultra Metal 14 8)

I've broken at least 4 of the plastic versions of this and am pleased to announce that i shall shortly be creeping around the garden cleaning my bike in a James Bond stylee in readiness for a wee ride to look at ickle baby lambs

How's your day?

Great thanks, warm and sunny here, currently sunbathing in back garden (sheltered from slight breeze) eating ice cream after a good ride around Northern Worcestershire this morning. Oh and i have another 6 days off work 8)

Hozelock Ultra Metal 14s are indeed ace, even acer if they a labeled up incorrectly and it goes through the till at the price of a plastic one.
