It was 3°C with broken clouds. The wind was light.
I have to admit to signing up to these sites before I’ve really understood what they are or why I’m bothering - and then complaining about all the junk e-mail I get that may or not be sent as a direct consequence.
Such is life in the internet age.
We are still in the internet age, aren’t we? Or is this the mobile age? Or still the television age, even. I don’t see that one going away any time soon.
