Batten Down The Hatches: Winter 2013/14 Chat

Weird >> I'm not that far from you and it's a fabulous dry and sunny day with a temperature of 11C.

Even the Frogs have gone into the shade.

It was a rather sudden snow shower, it's all sunny again now, must be cos we're 850ft up and the clouds didn't have a chance to melt when dropping their load...

We had a hell of a squall about midday - hail being driven across the car parks in a ferocious gale. Now its blue skies & the sun is shining as the sun slips down behind the hills out to the east

A real downpour going on here.Might as well shut the sat box down for a bit.
I was going to have another go at the elivation on the 100cm. That is out now.

 

[Lazarus]

Ditto.

Spring-cleaned another room (One per week) and now resting my Gouty foot.

Ouch.

Have those trees been cut down yet ?

Cleaning what's that ? I just wipe my stuff with a cloth that attracts dust and job done.

I could do with getting ladder out to check dish setup but this fold up ladder isn't long enough lol.

 

[Lazarus]

Yep. The tall conifers have gone, but there's still a pear tree in my immediate neighbours garden that causes some issues.

That said, I got 53E t'other day.

Certainly we need to ship clean underwear at least to our Aussie cousins..

In a quick change or direction ..are we any closer to closing this depressing thread and opening BBQ /2014 ?

Carry on, old bean: I was just about to limp into the garden to finish my Crossword whilst basking in the sun, so it must be Summer.

[Lazarus]

Nah, just make a decision and go for it!

After all, if it goes belly up, at least there'll be summat to talk about.






And someone to blame.

 

[sonnetpete]

Nah, open the thread up.....my lawns been mowed three times now and the wild garlic is flowering.....though I've let the Rayburn go out...a sure sign Winter will return....

 

[Vipersan]
