There's a first time for everything

Set off my first car alarm as I was parking up this morning.

Very satisifying :-)

Further improved my morning spin by putting a small fan heater in the car 15 mins before leaving. Result:

1. Interior completely demisted before leaving.
2. Everything - steering wheel, buttons, gearstick all warm to the touch.

Not sure why I have never done this before the autumn/winter ...

I had my first "Green snowflake" of the year this morning.

I had some at the back end of last week, and I wasn't even leaving "early"
