Hope you're going somewhere warm!
No ice here yet....

Warm, yes. Dry, only sometimes. |

And I'm stuck in the UK until mid-December....
So am I . . . and then I'm probably off to Munich (er, has anybody seen my thermals?) for Christmas . . . For some reason, the idea of hot chocolate with a large (and frequently replenished) glass of Tyrconnel is springing to mind . . . |

<sighs enviously> I'm contemplating turning on the heating to combat the lingering effects of the overnight soaking. Mind you, if you've got anything non-hardy still out in the garden, get it in. The Met Office is predicting a hard frost in your neck of the woods tonight. |

Thanks for the tip. Guess that means it'll stay clear today.

The Met Office is predicting a hard frost in your neck of the woods tonight. I've had the heat on continuously for the past week. I also had a nightmare about flooding last night. I think I need to move. |

What a lovely afternoon. Crisp, dry, no wind. Would be delighted to get a weekend day like this - lots to do.
On an amusing note, we are overrun with rabbits. (Well at least 3.) They're very fat and quite tame and I would guess that they've escaped from somewhere nearby. My nearly blind dog is having great fun sniffing out the paths they've left but so far has failed to spot them from a few tens of feet away.

I'll happily swap rabbits for our squirrels!
The deluge has arrived.

So I see - looks a bit grim down your way. The rain is about to come on again here but I had a lovely glass of wine in the sun a couple of hours ago. :~) |

It has been blustery and cloudy here all day, with the occasional flurry of rain, but nothing much. I had to go 20 miles inland this morning to find a butcher (ours will be closed for a few weeks due to storm damage) and it was very wet there.
Will I need to fax the canoe down wegie?

The rain thankfully seems to have buggered off for a while ;-) You will, however, have noted that I was quite correct about the discriminatory coverage . . . you guys get massive flooding and no trains for a week: regional news. We get high winds and maybe some flooding to come: front page. Meh. |

I get lame/boring weather and no news coverage. Where's the fairness???
I demand some snow!! Where I grew up, at this time of year there was already a month of snow...

Every time you masturbate, God kills a kitten. Please - think of the kittens. I probably shouldn't have, but it was just too frickin' funny not to. |

You live in the boring bit in the middle, the rest of us don't care! I demand some snow!! Where I grew up, at this time of year there was already a month of snow...
Hmmm. Remind me again about the age of your house and the level of insulation and glazing ;-) |
