Ice Ice Baby

I much prefer it to mud though.  

An inordinate amount of today has been spent in discussion with Sam who is trying to persuade me to let him have a hamster again.  He seems to have forgotten about this and all other down-sides...

I'm now regretting not making more of an effort to sell the hamster cage and accessories, which have been languishing in the garage for 2 years, since he's spent the evening cleaning it all and bringing it back into his room .

I don't want a hamster and so found myself saying I'd rather have chickens... 

Yet another occasion when I wish I''d kept my mouth shut...
