A reccy - Definitions of reccy. reconnaissance (by shortening) synonyms: recce, recco. type of: reconnaissance, reconnaissance mission. the act of reconnoitring (especially to gain information).

 Dorsetbred I'm probably being dumb as an ass here as I'm still none the wiser. Most likely because I have forgotten what the first message was hahahahha. I thought you were going on holiday somewhere.

[jtay]

Actually drizzling now too. Awful.

[matt111]

 jtay Same here and has been for a lot of the afternoon. Did see the sun briefly earlier but that was just for a few minutes. 

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 jtay I had that too

 At least the cloud was doing something

How is everyone? Been up to much? It's a bit quiet on the internet these days!

[Andy Bown]

 *Stormforce~beka* just really busy this week! And conditions are all a bit samey to discuss lol.

[TammasinWhiskers]

 *Stormforce~beka* I'm Knits With Cats, which is like Dances With Wolves but with additional asshats. 

Knitting socks for a friend who runs a fruit and veg shop so she's on her feet all day, so she wanted nice wool socks. Senior GentleCat thought having warm feet in an unheated shop was a silly idea and patiently took the sock of all four needles yesterday. It must have took him hours to unravel different lengths from each needle.

Other than that, I'm going to a textile fair this weekend in St Blazey (...if anyone wants to come, she says, hopefully) and it's ALWAYS mizzly in the Clay Country, so, meh. 

What are you up to today, anything nice?

[Andy Bown]

Oh hang on! A change! Mostly clear sky and a beautiful half moon as well as pinky sunrise! 
 

Awaits cloud turning up by 09.00! 

[AWD]

Car is all iced up this morning, didn’t plan for that.  Running late now.  A chilly 2.5c here.

Looks brighter though, fingers crossed I see a different colour than grey up above today.

[jtay]

Unexpected beautiful start to the day. Chilly too.

[MP-R]

Sunshine! Nice way to start Feb. Shame it won’t last.

[Dorsetbred]

Morning All, warm pleasant sunshine after the dreary few days, after the overnight low of 3.8°C at: 08:22, currently 8.4°C, RH83% and light air movement from the N - NE.

On Golden sands

How long will it last is the question?

[Alderc 2.0]

Great day so far, light winds, plenty of sun. Will take this. 

[Rich_Clements]

Afternoon All,

 

Not bad today I quite like this....

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 TammasinWhiskers I love knitting! Don't really get time any more since having kids mind. Sounds like your doing a good job though! I should start planning the garden for this but I never feel like it in the middle of winter then it's March and I'm late already! ...

[*Stormforce~beka*]

 Rich_Clements We could get used to this couldn't we! ...

[Bristawl Si]

8c, mainly sunny.

Pleasant enough in the sun, but a defo chill in the shade.

[Andy Bown]

‘Awaits cloud turning up by 09.00! ‘
 

Thankfully I was wrong about the above (can’t seem to quote myself lol) and there has been almost unbroken though sometimes hazy sunshine.

[jy]

What did you catch today JY....Don't tell him Pike lol

[Mapantz]

Nice in the sunshine today. Reached 11.4°C.

New project!

[AWD]

Nice day today.  Sunshine a plenty, albeit hazy at times.  Tad fresher than the recent, cloudy days though topping out at 7.1c.  Would take a dip in temperature for sunnier conditions without hesitation though.

Unfortunately, the immediate outlook indicates a quick return to cloudy, dull & at times, damp conditions though.  Milder temperatures at a dull, dreary cost.

On another note, I see the model thread has seen a period of re-energisation.  It appears they’ve found something else, record breaking & biblical, to chase now.
