STIA Weather

I've just looked at the forecast for Sunday, and it doesn't look good guys. Snow, high winds and all sorts.  

Friday looks suspect as well, so I think I'll be travelling down tomorrow instead.

Let's hope they're wrong.  
James

Aye Sandy I saw that on Countryfile on Sunday morning!
Les Marsh

Make sure your well wrapped up.
James

Wrapping up makes you warm, and that makes you get all sorts of queer viruses that weren't around 100 year ago!
Les Marsh

Everyone except James then wrap up warm.
James

LMAO!!
Rob

Atticman

Trouble is it's coal fired (the range you fool not the engine) and you just can't get salt'nvinegar flavour coal these days for love nor money.

I bought a jumper and coat, but forgot to put them on, wore fleecy thing, but it was a bit chilly by the pond, and wasnt looking forward to wading in and getting Snipe out when she primed in the middle.  
steamyjim

James
