It ...Sorry to come across like I sounded miserable. It isn't what I meant. Usually I enjoy feeling contempt for the willfully unenlightened fat morons who chose to drive tin boxes when, if they had the smallest imagination, they could be living real world life by bicycle. All that happened was the recent wet and cold made me feel a small amount of understanding for their choice of warm and dry. And given that most people prefer to be warm and dry than wet and cold, the idea of our grandchildren being 10 times better off than us rather than only 9 (or whatever old Nick wrote in his report) hardly seems a sufficient incentive to switch to the cold and wet lifestyle.juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02591920483149775255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9959776.post-60379277867047359682010-02-18T23:08:09.273+00:002010-02-18T23:08:09.273+00:00Or this.

They just go mouldy if you leave a bag on them in warm rainy weather.juleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02591920483149775255noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9959776.post-16294625309246523452010-02-18T03:26:53.396+00:002010-02-18T03:26:53.396+00:00Can you buy those cheap plastic shower caps (plast...Can you buy those cheap plastic shower caps (plastic bag, elastic band around the rim) over there?
