I just couldn't resist.

And the fact it's painted in wood grain was just too much for me.

The only the thing I'm not happy about is the fact no one thought to add another gusset around the bb.

Not odd at all.

Sorry about that mate, I also hated this time of year, although I have come to love it for the right reasons and not hate it for the wrong. I hope spring rolls around quickly for you.
