The walk out to the car is enough for me. :)
dry at moment but not especially nice. ..wrong again long range forecast:mental:
16°C here, dry and sunny, although the wind has a slight chill to it. It'll make working in the garden later more pleasant. Want to cut the grass again, and do some digging and weeding. Poppies are starting to come up nicely too... Will take a few pics when they're in full bloom:)

I know, I remember! Do you still get that thing going on in the winter months, when it can rain for days on end, and never seem to get properly light - and there's just this sort of 'grey gloom' permanently coating the sky and surrounding landscape?
Often, I used to have the lights on all day, from when I got up in the morning until I went to bed at night. I used to hate that... Very depressing, even for a naturally cheery bastard like me!:D
Marco.
What I used to hate, when working in offices, were the inconsiderate fatties and (permanently sweaty) menopausal women, who used to continually open the windows, even when it wasn't that warm!:doh:
They didn't even have the courtesy or manners to ask others first, sharing the same space, whether or not they were comfortable with the windows being wide open... I had a few barneys with them, I can tell you!!

22C here, with hazy sunshine. I also have grass to cut.
In my office, it was usually one woman arguing with another woman about whether it was too hot or too cold. I usually left 'em to it. It was the same with my two sisters when they shared a bedroom. They argued constantly about whether to have the window open or closed, whether to have the landing light on or off, etc etc. By contrast, my brother and I never seemed to argue about anything when we shared a bedroom.
my office was a car, or truck.. ;)
Yes, you're much more placid/tolerant than me, and probably less prone to becoming annoyed. I wouldn't have minded at all, if said sweaty bints had shown some respect/manners, and asked first if we (the majority in the room) wouldn't mind if the window was opened, but not just to do it regardless and only think of themselves... I can't abide such inconsiderateness!
It really pushes my buttons. So they were told what I thought of them in no uncertain terms!! The thing is, it was a room full of sales people, sitting at desks and doing direct selling by phone, and many of us, me included, would've had to sit in a permanent draught for hours while we worked, so I'm sure you'll agree how unacceptable that would've been? Plus, it wasn't a one-off, but a regular occurrence, and so enough was enough...
It's one of the reasons why I'm so glad that I started up my own business, to get away from tossers like that, and also bosses telling me what to do... Nothing better than being your own boss, and so answerable to no-one!:)
