Ha ha, exactly the opposite for me today! It's been proper showering down here the last couple of days, so I stuck the linings back into my gear cos it's cold without, and the D-Dry trousers let water through so at least it's an extra layer. I went to work this morning and while it wasn't raining, everywhere was soaked through. I got my gear on to leave today and stepped outside into glorious sunshine. Wouldn't have been a problem had I not had to go for petrol on the way home. I nearly passed out from the heat!
On the subject of petrol, I'm sure you're aware that up here it's usually cheaper than down south right? Well I've never paid more than £15.something to fill my tank, and that's on a 17l tank Hornet which I always run to 'reserve', but today I filled up after doing about 15 miles on reserve and it cost me over £17. 111.9p/litre at the local Sainsbury's, which isn't the cheapest in the area for a change, but they know me and don't give me grief for not taking my helmet off so I keep going there. Plus it's right near home and we collect Nectar points and those vouchers for schools. Anyway... :rollin
