I always phone and speak to a human when getting a taxi. I learnt that instead of talking to the robot you can press zero and a human comes on. The staff have got to know me and sometimes they say...

Not too bad where we live, but a friend of ours lives in Weymouth but works on Portland. They couldn't get to work because the road between the two was closed due to the storm. The only positive was that she was at home when the road was closed and not stuck on the 'wrong' side.

Succulent ID please.
I am going with some sort of Cotyledon orbiculata but I already have one of these and the leaf shape is the same but grey leaved with a floury surface. More digging needed I think!!
