Lovely sunny dry day spent at The Royal Observatory, Greenwich more to see than you think. So much high end world leading scientific craftsmanship to marvel over. Sadly due to the wind being too strong the 1pm time ball was having a day off.

Only issue was finding out DLR was not running once we’d got to our planned start point. So ended up having to go on DLR the long way via Stratford station once we’d found our way round it. Who designed the layout? The flow is so bad and a right miss mash.

It's ages since I've been there but I remember that there were some stunning chronometer/timepieces/clocks in there. (I lived for 10 years with a balcony view of the time ball but I've still never seen it fall!)

That was a fine result in the North London derby.

Same score as in November, btw.

Last week's Wolves wobble seen off then!

Another four seasons in one day day. I got a thirty mile ride in, it was sunny with blue skies when I left, sunny with blue skies when I returned, but got drenched in between time, and it was pretty windy.

I think Wolves played far better than Spurs did.

It's apparently 21 years since I joined eBay.

Think how much money I would have if I hadn't done that!

Yes they are all still on display, just seeing John Harrison’s collection of clocks alone is something to behold a life times work to achieve perfection.

Evening hot chocolate went down well as did the rest of the day
