    There you go (other colours are available)

    I saw a dog wearing a coat that fitted around all four legs several weeks ago, and wondered how difficult or easy it is to put on the dog.

    You're due in the next hour according to the radar. Should get a 30 minute or so break here in a bit, might be able to nip out then.

    What's wrong with the colour? After all, people these days seem quite happy to have purple, green, blue or scarlet coloured hair.

    It slackened off a bit so put on a waterproof and went round to the Sainsbury.

    There's no flood at the end of the street which is surprising after 5 hours of heavy rain. I suppose the drains must have been bone dry.

    I have a shaved nut, so hair colour is irrelevant!
    It is impossible for anything digital to sound analogue, because it isn't analogue!

    Started with some forked lightning this morning then proper chucked it down for 60 minutes or so. After that, dry as a bone.
