Sun is out, and I have a day off.

Skylarks singing against a clear blue sky over the allt in warm sunshine.

Blue sky, flat calm sea, sun's out & its warmed the car up through the windscreen.

Felt like summer driving home

He was an awkward fecker buying my old house and continues to meet my low opinion of him....

After my gripe.... Customer service at both the on-line retailer and DPD were great, parcel is held at the depot and address now updated. They will deliver to my corrected address tomorrow. Not only efficient, but nice folks to talk to as well! Made me smile anyway

I'm probably their favorite customer of the week. Anyway, MCC now owns some decent photographic kit and I get to take my own gear home for my own use full time at last.

Good on you for buying local.
Now you have people that can help you out if you have a problem and most of all, keeps that money in the local economy so not only that store profits, but all the stores they shop as well, vs going to some big companies bank account to likely be spent overseas.

. . and chances are they pay taxes to this country on profits made here?

Late notice half day taken and I went out and played on the bike only a short 100 mile bimble.

Now back in the house cold but ever so happy...

GOD I LOVE MOTORBIKES!!!

Knee deep in wrapping paper here this evening with lots of happy squealing. It's like the Monkey was 8 again, not 18. It's nice and peaceful now I've dropped her in town for a night out with her mates. I feel a bit old now but she's turned out reasonably well.

Going to a very low key event at Waterstones to hear a couple of authors of spy thrillers (Charles Cunning and Alan Judd) talk about being writers. Was informative and interesting and free. I love books, but don't own a Kindle, and it was good to discuss the merits and drawbacks of both.
