Can't not disagree with you, The Highlands have become a money magnet to please and drive folk up there, I remember when I was a young lad living in Strontian it was much different. The place was so wild and unpopulated, like going back in time.. it still is compaired to the South it's just very slowly catching up with many houses being purchased for holiday lets and folk from all over taking the opportunity to live there because of social media.

Model Output Discussion - moving into Winter
Polar Maritime replied to Community Team's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Reading many professional data-sets, The pattern we are about to enter certainly entertains the best early winter for the past decade at least. With that in mind and what the current models show even within the reliable timeframe it's the best winter prognosis for a long time.. -

Used to the exactly the same with long nets and purse nests and a 12bore at the ready incase one escaped.... Those were the days! Rabbit or Pheasant stew was my staple diet. Still love it now mind but not as often. Used to shoot ducks and Hares also but I tend to get them off other folk as as I've grown older I don't like killing animals. Also my grandad had the local shoot and used to work on Haddon Estate picking up with my dogs so plenty of free game.. -

If your cold you will burn more energy in your body so warmth always comes first. Otherwise your health will go downhill fast! -

Im not sure, I just know that since the budget they have upped it from £100 to £200. Yes winter tyres going on here to next week -

Polar Maritime replied to stewfox's topic in Spring Weather Discussion
We should be getting I think £200 now not £100 paid into our electric account because not on gas. So that should help. But no idea when this will happen -

The dogs love it when range is on, I use it for everything even drying cloths. With the price of oil... Yes the smell also of fresh chopped wood is something els! -

Always best to chop it when it's wet, much easier. Or even better when frozen -

Much the same here with no gas and living very remote got an Aga range for cooking heating and hot water. We also have a fire in the living room and spend every summer collecting wood and chopping. It's so therapeutic and something I've grown up with having to do.. Aga range is on now 24/7 just ticking over, when it gets very cold I light the fire. -

I think some folk need to realise the models don't exactly reflect the weather at the flick of a switch. Especially looking at charts into the extended runs.. -

Model Output Discussion - Deeper into Autumn
Polar Maritime replied to BlueHedgehog074's topic in Forecast Model Discussion
Models are looking very promising indeed for cold wintry weather into December. With such a disturbed PV this early in the season it's something we haven't seen for a good 12 years or so... This isn't a ramp by the way
