Stuff sometimes just happens! The MX5 is starting to disprove my commitment to this belief because: It gets a cracked windscreen within 200 miles from new; the process to get it changed is tortuous and then today when they came to finally fix it the chaps laid some of the plastic housing on the grass and... yes, piglet ran over one piece and scratched it. The robot mower moves randomly and takes many hours to cover the whole lawn so how come it happened to be in the one square metre where these pieces of plastic were placed? What are the odds? After a brief "discussion" where the guys suggested I claim off my insurance - what, for their stupidity? It was rapidly agreed they would  order a new part and replace on a revisit. Won't this problem ever go away?

Despite all that nonsense I had a lovely day pottering about in the garden. Cutting back autumn raspberries - wrong time of year did I hear you say? Do I look bothered? It's a raspberry cane, it's got two choices - live or die. There are plenty of punnets of raspberries in Tesco.
