Action whilst the sun shines...

It's pretty sunny.

And it's supposed to stay that way, for a couple of weeks ( no bets being placed on that however).

More importantly though Autumn* is almost here.

It seems like the ideal time, and last chance to get my umbrella serviced.

James Smith (see below) of course and, I must say, I like that place more and more.

Having dropped my umbrella off for servicing they took my address (physical for the techo-assumptive out there) and will post me an estimate prior to commencing the work.

Just like hand written receipts this sort of (tiny) thing makes me look forward to the chance of my next visit.

During hard retailing times it's worth a note. The cost is next to nothing but the experience is in a different league.
