Cheap Gloves
I got some new motorcycle gloves from the charity shop. The looked okay, but after using them for a while, they are very not breathable, so my hands get quite sweaty. At the same time, they were not really warm! Maybe I have to relegate them.

Commercial Sweeping Robot
I have seen robot lawn mowers out in the wild. I recently saw the robot sweepers in the shopping mall, in the busy hours. Impressive.

All the (Easter) Eggs in One Basket
We had a repair cafe on the Easter Sunday. It was adequately busy for the holiday. Then there was a big basket of Easter Eggs. We are not sure who left it there, but everyone is enjoying the eggs, especially not having to hunt them down!

Full Price Skiing
Unlike summer skiing discount, we went in the Easter break, and it was full price, some £36 quid, for 1 hour. That is a month worth of petrol on the motorbike... It makes the ski membership more appealing, on the other hand, makes motorcycling looks like a really cheap hobby.
They removed the hump, so no jump this time.

Fiesta Maps
The map is fairly accurate, except sometimes the visual maps is a little wrong. And I hate not being able to setup before I start the motor.

Big Bells Small Church
When we were in Tideswell, Cathedral of the Peak, the bing bong goes all night. Stoney Middleton St Martin's is quite small, it still bing bongs all night...

Monsal Trail - East Bound
We went back to Hassop, Monsal Trail on the second day, we went into Bakewell, which is very near Hassop.
We walked around some shops, and I finally find something I wanted to buy from the Ginger Butcher, they are less competitive than Chatsworth. The ladies in the Ginger Butcher were talking about how busy it would be for the Easter weekend, and where to avoid.
The car pack were jammed pack by the time we got back to Hassop. We just went back to base and started packing.
