"Plenty to be proud of" says the text under this pic in the article
from the Mail
The pic along with a bewildering array of graphs and facts and figures make Britain one of the best places in the world. The "survey", cant you make a survey say anything you want? lists 35 countries where the data comes from and makes out that Britain ranks "above average" for Personal Security, "That hoary old chestnut", Job Satisfaction and earnings.

The

A quick call to
the Sureflap people brought a wonderfully quick response with a next day delivery of a replacement.

Sainsbury takes it easy in front of the log burner again!
Yesterday I managed to get in a little logging, I walked down to the site because its too wet now to get any vehicles down there. I normally don't log during the winter but decided this year to give it a go. Its certainly a little more comfortable than working in the summer heat.
The bit I'm working on is just below the centre of the green field.
Enjoy the day
