19C already, feels nice and warm. Plenty of blue sky and it's not raining, is winter finally gone?

It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

Went to a car boot sale a few miles away. 8am, and already warm enough for t shirt. But not warm enough to entice anyone with anything worth selling. Only things remotely of interest were an ok pair of Beovox S30 speakers for £90, which I'd estimate was about £88.50 too much, and a stall selling a few thousand records which looked like they'd arrived on a tipper truck. All I'd spent was £1 for the parking
Back home already, watching Peppa Pig and wishing I was at work.
I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

I keep meaning to take a photo of it but I always forget to take my 'phone with me. It was right across the street again last night. You have to be careful when near it when it's like that as fuckers will deliberately drive into it in the hope of soaking you. It's at a five-way intersection too, so they can come at you from any direction.

bus stops always had puddles near them(maybe due to all the busses, or someone thought it fun) they used to be near irrisistable targets, especially old women with high permed hair

I think so. It's not properly warm here and the wind is strong but that chill in the air that has been pretty much constant since last October is finally gone.
