seemingly

Ice has gone and the temperature has risen - to a sweltering 4.5 now. Having managed to push over 900 miles this week, and it's only Thursday, I for one am pleased to see the tarmac again! However, the good old Bristish roads have taken the usual pounding, and the potholes and rough roads, have managed to take a toll on my back, courtesy of the most rubbish car I have driven for around 15 years - an Audi A4. Hopeless car, and extreme in its discomfort to say the least!! Even its satnav finds the longest possible way from Southampton to Brinklow. Tell it to do the quickest route, that apparantly is via every town centre, and not on the M40!!!!
Still I guess the next thing will be daffs and bluebells. The marina is fantastic in the spring, partly because of the masses of spring flowers that the harbour team have planted all around. The sky at least cheers everyone up, and makes it look good, soon be time to get out.
