    As the light nights are pretty much here, anyone else find they seem to have a want to get a few odd jobs done around the house. Couple of bits I've put off all winter have been completed in less then an hour tonight. Jumped in the car with the boy and went along ability(5 year old loves it in there) at tea time to get a replacement window handle (Old one wouldn't lock on the French doors), ended up coming out with about 5 different things I needed and got a few of them sorted. Stuff I'd put off during the winter. I'm not a lazy bloke, just dark nights and graft has me thinking "can't be arsed". Anyone else find they do this?

    I mean, no to the odd jobs. But I used to love all seasons but I've realised I hate winter and love summer.

    Huge list of jobs for me. Nearly a full A4 sheet. Now nicely typed up, printed off and buried somewhere on my desk.
    I love the shade of the yellow of the gorse bushes this time of year

    I love the smell when the sun is on them in the summer.
