Golly, no red hair here, Candice.

But an umbrella's quite useful, it's almost always raining in the English
Midlands, in a lugubrious way, we've been having sunshine lately for once,
and old friends are doing odd things, like wearing tee-shirts, most strange,
it really can at times be like living in a poem by Philip Larkin.

Not something I'd not wish on anyone, least of all me.


Best

Dave
