Good morning from Suffolk basking under traditional grey skies. Coffee has been had.

It looks wetter underfoot outside than the amount of rain last evening would suggest while the next big blob of wet stuff isn't far off so I'm not going to be doing very much today.

The 08:58 Ipswich-Felixstowe train has just gone past - over half an hour late on a journey of just over 20 minutes.

It might be an arterial road.

It might be an arterial road.

Too much pressure to get there on time.

Enjoying a tiramisu with one eye on the weather, in case I need to bring in a few bits of washing. I've hung out seeing it's been dry with a nice bit of wind.

Turned out a very pleasant morning, lots of (dare I say ?) spring sunshine. Enjoyed a couple of hours out on the bike, its first outing for two weeks.

Misty, murky, foggy here, whatever it is, and raining.

A day of continual gloomy wetness with just a short period where it eased down to gloomy drizzlyness mid afternoon. I used that opportunity to give the car a 50 mile round trip up to Stowmarket and back to get some charge into the battery. Having been stood unused for 3 weeks, I've never had it turn over so slowly before firing up. Perhaps this will be the year I finally get it a new battery, but I've been saying that for the past two years. Hopefully it will be OK now until the end of the month when I'm driving Mum down to Bluewater for a get together with her late sister's family.

Other than that the day's been filled with radio, reading, sitting around, hot & cold drinks and too many snacks.

My working day is completed

Office day, in Skipton. So thats 40+ miles and £7.30 parking to claim but management insists it makes sense. Annoyingly petrol is 6.8p/litre cheaper there, why did I fill up last night?
One advantage was lunchtime and a Morrisons close by. Wandered in expecting to purchase little and ended up with a rucksack full of 20% discounted freeform items.
