One was half expected. One was a complete surprise. Both I could have done without, and neither am I going to share with you. Anyway, it hasn't been a great day, but rather than photographing something bloody awful I decided to go and find some cheer in the company of the latest additions to Laura's 'service toys' range. The charming chappie on the left is Robin, and he's kitted out in full RNLI oilskins to face any weather. We got him at the Hoylake open day, and we were served by a lovely, lovely man that I worked with during a previous life. Good to know we're both still alive and healthy. :) On the right is Enid the Elk, who as you can probably tell from the attire is an aeronaut. The scarf gives away that she's a member of the Finnish Air Force, so we've gone very much international now, as she sits alongside Bruno, the civil aviation Finnair bear. Tomorrow should be a better day. At least I hope so - tomorrow is my birthday! :) What an interestingly repetitive date we have today. Today brought me two bits of news. One was half expected.
