More radio 5

Lynne had as much success as me with the TV but thanks to John Lewis we discovered a few days of the 3 year guarantee remains. An engineer will visit in a week's time, armed with a temporary replacement in case he cannot fix it. Another week of radio 5 looms ,although we can catch the odd tv programme on the iPad if we need to escape the cold turkey.

It's raining again. We have the lights on indoors,as much to cheer the mood, as imitate sunlight.

Lynne's commute from London took 5 hours last night due to a series of M1 accidents and inevitable hold ups.
