Education

I wonder if I might offer this as an example of the quality of education in this country?


This week I've done a few miles on motorways and it seems that many drivers don't get the concept of "average speed cameras". Thus they tear along in roadworks and then suddenly pull in and slam on the brakes when they see the average speed camera. Once they've passed it they tear off again. Huh?

Gimme shelter

One of the best opening riffs in rock music?

Rose

Remember that wonderful pink rose in summer? I took this shot when I went out for a walk this afternoon.

Bells

This was here when I moved in. I took this shot because the outline stands out well against the snow as it slowly creeps off the corrugated plastic awning outside the back door.

It must be....

It's being used in a TV advert just now - great song and I lurv this version. It's one of those "makes me smile" tracks. I hope it cheers up anyone going stir crazy in the snow.

End of the year!

Just wanted to point out that I've managed more than one post each day (as an average). I hope 2009 was kind and that 2010 delivers what you want rather than what you deserve :-)

Happy New Year to everyone!

NYE

Do they know it's Christmas time at all?

Nearly there!

Always nice when a visitor stays over - Cal in the spare room after an evening of Dr Who, pizza and Waterloo Road.
Tomorrow we'll hang some decorations and visit Waitrose for final bits and because we always go on Christmas Eve.
