Default 20C in late October

My weather station at this moment is showing 19.7C - almost unheard of for late October. I'm still wearing shorts much of the time and I don't recall a year when I have been able to make so much regular use of them.

Fix a poor handbrake; DIY ABS diagnostic unit; Loan of the spanner needed to change the CDT belts; free OBD diagnostics +MAF; Correct Bosch MAF cheap; DVB-T install in an ex-hi-line system; DD install with a HK amp; FBH servicing.

I've taken a vow of poverty. To annoy me, send money.

Just posted something similar on the LCOZ thread!

Just been working on Ed outside and although I was only wearing a thin t shirt, I got quite warm!

It's lovely isn't it, I'm in the garage working on bikes, T-shirt, Shorts, door and window wide open, usually by now it's heating on & thermal socks to stop my toes getting cold on the concrete floor..

Enjoy it while you can I guess..

Last month reading a farming weather guide, it mentioned decent temperatures until the end of the year, rain is the killer though.

I love it, patio door was wide open yesterday.
I look at it as every day like that is less money for the energy company and more for my cars.

Bit moist in Boston today, but have been in the garden since 7:30, hate these dark nights though, so many jobs to do, so little light.

Desk bound now for work
