Blame us we- are just having solar panels fitted at the moment!!!
Got to say though that I take everything the Mail says with a pince of salt ;)

Well it's certainly colder this morning... had to scrape off OH's car again. Not very cold though..  :-X

BBC are saying the same now :(

Weatherspark also says we are in for a cold week

Oh no, the winter could turn more........ normal.
Good old Daily Mail.

so how does "with temperatures set to plummet to minus five across the whole country by the weekend" in the text of this article square with the temperatures in the 3 day forecast at the bottom of the article ::)

Well they've been out gritting both roads and pavements here overnight.

You get pavements gritted!!!!!!!! :o

Gosh, snow in winter!  And temperatures plummetting to below zero!  

Who would have predicted it?

a bit off- thread I know but round here they call them "Causis", so you have to be careful not to fall off the "causy edge" !

About time too ;D

I hope my broad beans, which have gone a bit leggy, make it through.

snow ball fights here we come winters finally arriving.

quite right pumkinlover,me mum and dad god luv em have solved my Diabetic issues everytime they open the papers medical pages...... ::)



The Plot last year.....bring it on I need to clear me head  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Gazza

Gazza I though everything in the mail was cosha!!!  ;D lol my parents love it, but if I had to tell them to take everything with a pinch of salt it would be like telling my 6 year nephew that Santa Claus isn't real, they're happy enough and that's good enough for me.. ;)

Snow predicted by Monday, a wee bit frosty this morning I gather as a few murmers and sounds of scrapping windows was to be heard..any it usually snows end of January into Feb, well it always used to on exmoor ???

As my freelance journalist daughter sometimes writes for the shhhhhhhhh DM I shan't take offence ;D. 

Finally a bit chilly here, had to scrape the windscreen this morning. Heavy frosts over the weekend. Should still be around 8 or 9 degC in the day which is not that cold. At least till end of next week.... do the plot good, I've not got much in now except a bit of cabbage and the garlic.

so whats the big deal...IT IS WINTER!!

I think the deal is Jim that we havent had much of a winter as yet and a lot of us will be welcoming a bit of a freeze.
