Who turned out the lights?

Sunday, July 2nd, 2006

Blinking flip!

We spent all afternoon in the park with Finley (my 3 year old nephew: see pic below) surrounded by t-shirtless chavs swearing, drinking, smoking and playing football (in that order) and loads of fat young biffers exposing rather unseemly amounts of pale, dimpled flesh, presumably in the hope of attracting the attention of the aforementioned.

All afternoon I’ve been lethargic because of  the heat but about 20 minutes ago I realised I could barely see anything - I turned on the lights and suddely realised how dark it had become. Funny, I thought, it’s July not November. Why is it dark so early?

Then the rain started.

it’s put more down in the last five minutes than in the last five weeks. thank god I got home in time ;)

An evening in front of the PC beckons I think. The only slight problem is that we’ve defrosted the fridge today, and there wasn’t room in the coolbox for my beers - so the only cold beers are in the garage, and I’m going to get very wet if I go across to get them

Now where did I put that  Lowe Alpine waterproof? And the matching trousers…
