You could tell it was the first day of spring by the overcast dreary sky and the all day drizzle. :rain:

It was a cracking day here in Derby.  :sunny: Walked the daughters dog in a T shirt & light fleece....even Deb took her gloves off!!!  :thumb:
A bit different today though.  :groan:

Edit.... it was me in the T shirt & fleece, not the dog!!  :grin:

Hugo, I did edit my post (almost straight away) as I know what you lot are like! 
However the dog does wear sort of jacket, it's one of those harness things, that's fine but it's bloody pink! I know the dog is female, but even so!
