Gary's found a castor (as in furniture type castor) quite what it was doing that far underground is debatable.
Sunny day out, currently 6°C with no better than 7° expected later. Barometers slightly down at 1016/1023mB. Still a bit breezy out, it seems, but I think the trailing bit of the storm that passed us overnight has pretty much moved on now

There's still a bit of a chilly breeze out there, but it was only in my face for the first leg and I'd remembered my scarf
There's a bus stop I go past with a bus shelter. But today, it didn't have a bus shelter. And, oddly, there was no trace on the pavement, which is Tarmac at that point, of holes that had been filled in when it was removed. Maybe they were just hard to see because it was dark, but I might go and have a look on Street View and make sure there really has been a bus shelter there and I wasn't just imagining it every time I walked past it over the last eighteen months or so
