It looks like I'm going to get soaked. It's gone pitch black outside.

Though it looks like Kwacky is about to get the dark bit of the cloud and not the silver lining.

I'm sure it's getting colder. I'm going to need the neck cover on my jacket if this carries on.

On the plus side I've managed to turn the radiator on in the small changing room where I keep my kit, so I can now heat up my jacket when I get into work so it's nice and toasty when I put it on before the ride home.

For me to go to work on my bike I'd have to do a lap round the garden :D

Darn south it's been cold and wet pretty much since I picked my bike up and the only good day this week is going to be Sunday ;( Mothers day
Live each day as your last as one day you'll be right !!
