That’s a good one. It’s all those little leading lines.

It reminds me of a room in a friend’s house many years ago, that had wall paper with a big swirly complicated pattern. It used to make me feel sick for some reason, but nobody else.

There's no doubt that this is a particularly miserable start to a year down here. Even the Topsham forcefield has been on the blink. Rather remarkable that even after all this rain, Colliford reservoir still isn't full.
