Just stayed overnight near airport, hounslow i think its classed as

went for a walk to shop and it was like walking through the gaza strip.  Put it this way i zipped my wallet and phone up in my inside pocket and put my hood up to appear a big more local. Im not suggesting all of london is that bad but i couldnt wait to get out of there.

Most places round Heathrow are a dump and put you on high alert for your security.

Well, it may have warmed up abit, which is very welcome, but one of the other reasons i dislike working in winter is very evident this week. I leave the house looking pristine, and come home looking like ive been in a mud slinging contest. Roads and pavements are minging. Waste of time cleaning the van, absolutely filthy by the end of the day, hose covered in all sorts which manages to transfer itself to boots and trousers and coat. Having to wipe gloves after each clean... etc... you can keep winter, thank god we're now over half way through it.

Same here but I trod in a load of cat crap today. Rubbed my boot on anything I could find before I got back in my van 😂
We look at them, they look through them.
