Little things

Thinking about the fact that it's been a week since they resurfaced the exit from Areley Common to Dunley Road but no-one has repainted the Give Way markings at the end of it yet.

Wondering if the timing on the Dunley Road Pelican has been altered to increase the red-time.

Watching a guy this morning trying to negotiate his three-wheeled walking frame past the new finger post outside the Tandoori.

Noting that the new gritty pavements still look grubby despite the rain.

Anticipating the drop to the left every time I cross the Severn bridge.

Spotting someone up a ladder outside the Swan. Hmm?

Seeing two workers replacing the billboard ad on Gilgal with their van parked with a small length of partitioning cones at either end completely unsuitable for that corner.

Anticipating the duh-dum from the thrice-refilled inspection hole that has sunk on the Stour bridge.

Seeing that water is still pooling at the entrance to the OGL island from where the 'repair' works were done.

Getting stuck behind the cars trying to turn right into Thomas Vale that are now having to wait for cars coming up the road to clear first.

Marvelling at where all the poppies have come from

Still waiting to get a firm date on my new car.

Wishing I had some Sourz Apple, which is quite nice when mixed with lemonade.

or if possible some of the Cherry, which works well with Cola.
