Hurray, Mr Spur is back with a cheery Christmas ditty Posted Image That reminds me, must get to Millets, last year's waterproofs must have 'shrunk' when they got wet...

 

Talking of rain, the stream that runs through campus was a full river torrent yesterday and today; let's see what it's like by Friday if the rainfall totals end up anything like on Coast's maps. Surprisingly cool day after yesterday's distinctly mild muck. 

 

Have a good evening everyone and welcome back AS - hope it's comforting to come back and find everyone chatting away and nothing changed.

It sure is, thanks Reef and all.

Hi All,

 

Bit sad but just been looking on Youtube at some of my old kids programs.

 

Bagpus, Wilow in the wisp, Trumpton, Button moon, The Sullivans & the Banana bunch Mmmmmmmmmm

the weather must be bad at the moment  Posted Image

This could take us a little off topic but.....

 

Ivor the Engine.  The episode with the snow and the rescue of the sheep in the 'top left hand corner of Wales' still gets me going.  I've 'persuaded' all my children to watch Ivor and also Mr Benn and either they enjoyed them or they were humouring me!  I probably don't want to know the truth.

lol I've mentioned that wave a couple of times not for snow potential though. I was thinking it could give us some gusts, which considering the wind already blowing could be around the 40/50 mark inland.

Hi region aires , I hope everyone is well & just as unorganised as me for Christmas ! I've decided it IS going to snow because I've just ordered my daughter a sledge which lights up ! ! How excited am I lol . It looks soooo cool ,just need the white stuff now as I'm not sure it will have the same effect on my mud bath of a garden ! X

hi captain

 

would need a lot of height

 

the only thing that may help is if it crosses when the wind changes to a north westerly flow

 

however whether the met office are watching or not i am still not convinced yet

Going by Ian f's latest post, it doesn't get this far east, mostly in the west. Some of west Sussex might get some.
