It’s raining heavily here. And it’s the club kids’ Santa ride this morning. The rain is supposed to ease about the time the ride starts. That doesn’t help when I’ve got to put the bike rack and bikes on the car in the rain.

It is dry at the moment . I can see some light orange on the horizon between the slate grey clouds .

My tablet seems to have developed a brain ! It is having a think before doing anything .

I wonder if anyone else was a chorister. We used to start practicing for Christmas in September & were relieved when it was all over!

Practicing was a foreign concept to many of our choir members.

They said there'd be snow at Christmas...

There is, somewhere.

The weather peeps just issued a yellow weather warning .

I know this in theory, but it still feels like some dark days ahead.

Anyhow I shall get on with my works, and stop pouring buckets of cold, doom and gloom over what should be a cheery seasonal thread.

I enjoy picking sprouts anyhow, they snap off in a really satisfying way.

It's kinda like green bubble wrap.

Fair enough. We were trained in chainsaw use in my carpentry course. I was very relieved when I could switch the wretched thing off and give it back to my tutor.

Since then I''ve always used hand tools. They're slower until you calculate the amount of time needed for maintenance and to earn the money to pay for them, and much, much less likely to involve casually removing a limb.

Possibly to the Pole !
