Gusty outside. I’m curled up in bed, though. Winning!

‘Min bed. Early start tomorrow. Sleep tight, everybody one and all the lot of you. Sweet dreams. N’night.

It’s quite a pleasure for the tips.

Moff on a work jaunt next two days. Lots of driving, so might be quiet. Don’t fret! You’ll live without me.

No, it was very reasonable at £5.99 I think.

The long-overdue new case for my phone just arrived. Soft-touch. Ooh.

It’s hard to believe Cassie is nearly four.

The Burner wasn’t bad. Mag wheels! They were novel.

No matter. BMXs and the like were very quickly lost to time by the Mountain Bike revolution.

And yet appropriate. It wasn’t a BMX yet resembled one. It had three gears and ‘bars permanently padded, so was, curiously, heavier yet a better all-round bike for the most part. Was that a swindle?

Not a great choice of name.

Finn tells me he’s like to think he’s better than everyone but he’s just too darn modest.
