Ours too. I think they must compete with each other to see who can survive with shorts 365 days a year.

I do

The silly thing is that because you are walking / moving constantly you keep warm and toasty , under my big coat all i wear is a Red Polo shirt , yet you see people all wrapped up in scarves / gloves thick coats. It must be something to do with spending 75% of your life outside

The last time i wore long trousers on delivery was a year last December but as we had around 10 inches of snow on the ground it was over my socks .

Plus when its hammering down your legs dry quicker than trousers once the rain stops

People do think your barmy though

So my post will stop when the stinging nettles grow in the spring time...

I'm sorry, I rather suspect that might be my fault; new scope syndrome.

Ordered it last Friday, got e-mail saying it had shipped today; being such a major bit of glass it's just bound to be my fault.
