    The air quality here is so good now I can smell the silage from the farm 3 miles away. It's a bit nippy out but it is still March what can you expect?

    I personally love my Direct Drive TT, and it will go to the grave with me. - I'm certainly no expert, in fact the very opposite, but I love the solid rock-steady presentation, and the absence of faff. Plug 'n' play very important for a numpty like me.

    Still I suppose we like what we like, like.

    Just shows how weather can vary over quite short distances, although this peninsula does have quite different weather patterns to areas close by. Some evenings we have sat in our back garden (with a glass or two of wine) watching lightening storms either side of us as they follow the path of the Orwell and Stour rivers.

    About an hour ago, I sat for 10 minutes in the sunshine and it was warm. Now it's thick cloud and sleet.
