Batten Down The Hatches 2017/18

[Captain Jack]

Been snowing all night in Birmingham. Hope the drive back down south isn't perilous.

Good job we brought all our food with us to our Peak District hol Cottage ........ snowbound this morning. Only two miles to the nearest metalled road!

 

[Captain Jack]

Don't worry. As always, it will all melt in a day.

Just travelled from the North York Moors to the Peak District and the wx has been weird. Intense snow flurries with flakes that looked akin to Cavity Wall Insulation beads, punctuated by gusty winds then calm sunny spells. And repeat.

You must be a glutton for punishment, travelling over there with the weather forecast for yesterday being what it was!

 

[RustySpoons]

I've just put my garden Christmas lights on

Not bad at all, though the toothpaste has frozen in the bathroom.

It’s the same over here, even the sea gulls have disappeared.

 

[Lazarus]

Was sunny at 2pm, so we went out for a walk, but got caught in a couple of brief showers.

Otherwise, mild.

Just wait while Monday .....

 

[Ghostleader]

Heavy snow here and beginning to settle...ah well, we're off to Barcelona in six weeks....

Enjoy mate

 

[Ghostleader]

Cold as #*¶∆ here, I get the distinct impression my lifes like the film The Trumann Show and the weather is always manufactured to be pish when I'm off

 

[Topper]

Sleety snowy stuff falling from the skies this morning and it is cold ugh

 

[Lazarus]

Ditto.

For once, we got it right and elected to do our major Bank Holiday walk yesterday.

Mild here with occasional glimpses of the sun (other periodicals are available at vastly inflated prices). Forecast is for the temperature to reach the dizzy heights of 17C on Friday...
