My current contract ends this week. My new contract (3 months) is in the opposite direction.

I used to have a 10 mile journey and about 6 miles of that was through deserted parkland. Lovely.

My new journey is 14 miles on busy "A" roads. About 5 miles is unlit. I went in for a day yesterday and it was nasty, nasty. I already have 3 red rear lights and a front headlight & a white LED. I think I'm going to double all that.

And the road surfaces are atrocious too. What a drag. I hope in 3 months time I can get a new contract back here again.

Oh - and the new place has no net access and no external mail (WHAT???) so my postings here will be seriously curtailed, and out of office hours
