I never trust Metcheck, they always tell me that I am going to have a mud free, scorching Glastonbury. rolleyes.gif

Ah, but do they also do a line in BBQ Summers? ;-)

I always compare the two but they never tally up with any forecast at all. What is your take on next week? cc_confused.gif

You are joking yeah? Gale force winds!!! Yikes! That will be a nightmare as my shed roof has gone rotten and is hanging off and I haven't plucked up the courage to go out there and fix it, too cold! The rain has more than likely written off my lawnmower as it is.

Bored with snow now, it didn't turn up when I wanted it so it can sod off. biggrin.gif

I edit every post I write, I really should read back before hitting post.

It might have gone rotten now, but by the weekend it might just be plain gone! :D

I'm sure I heard somewhere that it's going to get windy before the weekend. :D

So we've got to wait for "Daisy's Snow Zoo 2010/2011" then??? :lol:

Fraid so. I was going to make squillions of quid as well with entry fees, a restaurant serving only ice cream, a gift shop full of ice sculptures of my animals... I was going to ask Ian to do the official opening... All of my plans, ruined! :D

haha i dont think this winter will bow out without a big bang :wallbash: however im hoping that when i go to Brittany @ the end of march it is warm and sunny! not like last week standing in the river frome in snow and rain freezing and now I have a cold from that :D

Also in Bristol there a new aquarium has opened its really good me and a few uni mates went there would recommend for any1 who loves fish as much as I do! So if you live near/in Bristol go have a peak !

Oh well, once we've got this BBQ Summer ( :wallbash: ) out the way, winter will be fast approaching, so you'll have to resurrect the plans again!!

You'll have to get a new shed too, otherwise where will you be serving the ice cream from??

With 'snow zoo' not really working out AND with all the rain this week, did think we could start up some girl mud wrestling competitions here in Somerset. Free entry, cider, couple of shrimps on the barbie?

Second thoughts - everyone so depressed about lack of snow on this site that they wouldn't bother to come and watch !!! yahoo.gif

(the above is totally and completely unweather related, to which I deeply apologise to the mods, but there are only so many ways to say it rained all day!! Which it did in West Somerset!)

No idea! :nonono:

There is talk of it getting colder again after the weekend, but how cold?...

Even if it does get cold again, it'll probably be dry, knowing the luck of the South West!!! :lol:

Might have to go and raid Scotland for some snow :lol:
