    Spotted while driving north through roadworks on M1 near Wakefield yesterday, a workman! He was lurking amongst the cones but his fluorescent yellow plumage stood out like a sore thumb. My first sighting of one this year.

    Wasn't that a Bonnie Tyler song? And what's that structure near you that looks like a giant needle?

    I lost a perfectly good Estwing hammer in Wakefield while working on a new "eco houses" estate a few years ago.

    While I've got my "grumpy head" on, let me just say how much I hate it when people say "Robin Reliant". Grrr! Mrs Pony thinks there are more important things to get mad about, but all these niggles have a cumulative effect.

    Also on my shit-list are people at the supermarket who wait for the check-out person to say what the total bill is before rooting in their handbag for their purse. And people who say "definately" will be first against the wall when the revolution comes
