Absolutely no rain here last night and bright sunshine.

Just about to have a cuppa & a Kitkat

Then wash SV & my cycle

ps, grey and threatening rain in Bracknell

Any recommendations ?
Might look round freeport Saturday, lots of sports shops there

Sure you'll get some there, good time of year to buy as we're well out of the skiing season

PS Pouring here in Basildon

The night I'm supposed to be seeing an outdoor production of A Midsummers' Nights Dream

Bloody typical !

Always better motorcycle commuting in the rain when the traffic's bad, I'm hoping for a good old snarl up on the 127 tonight!
