I could do with a second summer to help me sell my bike (sun)

Very sunny here in Liverpool, Pity I've been stuck in a Lab all day. I'm hoping the weather is really nice in a few weeks time, when all the young nubile ladies return to Uni and the freshers start and hopefully need to wear next to nothing.

There's a fair amount of eye candy around at the moment and that just the post-grad students. With freshers week I've gotta be careful I don't end up on some kind of register.

When my Sis was at Brighton Uni it was commonly known as "F*** a fresher week" to everyone other than freshers apparently. :S

Freezing cold this morning. You could see your breath. It's too early in the year for this.

Went out tonight on the bike ... set off in lovely evening sun and came back in the dark. I think the summer gloves were a bad idea (doh)

Fast, familiar 'A' roads are all together different when unlit .... eyes on stalks

It's been proper autumnal here this week. Most mornings have been bright sunshine, but about 11 degrees with a low lying mist.

It's really pretty looking over the fields.

I gave up on the summer gloves for commuting a couple of weeks ago. I wore them last week when I went out with Dale but I can't see them being used again unless I go out on a warm afternoon.

23 degrees's today, and that was at 5pm !!

Was out at the park all day with the kids today and I actually put sun tan lotion on them at 11am as it was really properly hot.. Fingers crossed this lasts until next weekend.....
