| | | Weather enough already
I am sick of this weather now.
Yesterday was splendid then today its poor again. Had planned to go to Wales up in the mountains this weekend. I am no fair weather walker but this is ridiculous. Its nearly April and we have yet to have a decent weekend. Can't walk in comfort, no cycling. It hasn't even been a 'good winter', just poor weather for months now.
I am angry  |

Boddie, I've felt just the same. Must be something to do with the influx of new cameras! Am now waiting for blue stuff above and a glowing ball of light! |

Is it a Sigma 70-300mm? a friend of mine has one, the zoom cam was faulty and had to be sent back to Japan. Six weeks later he's got it back. |

The birds have stopped feeding, we have two Newts in the pond, a fat frog was out side my back door. SPRING HAS COME AT LAST!
I hate the cold weather |

I wonder if any of you keep diaries re the weather. In my experience, the period of time before we put the clocks forward is often miserable weatherwise, and I look forward to the first Sunday bringing lighter evenings with great anticipation.
My excitement is rarely justified! So often it's a wet and cold day, and the light is poor so you wouldn't even notice the time change. Maybe tomorrow will prove me wrong!! |

I woke up this morning and yet again... rain.
I had to laugh.
Mind you I was on nitrous oxide at the time. |

It doesn't have to be 'nice' weather to get out, we were born with waterproof skins so ignore the rain and just enjoy what's out there |

Must be Little Aston - bright and sunny in the potteries - I am however, at work, so that it's wasted on me |

IF you are waiting for "perfect" weather here in the UK before getting out and about then you would surely hardly ever get out!
Just wrap up, grab your bino's and get out there

Actually today I bought myself a new jacket, heavily discounted from 140 nicker to 15. Seems the shop saw me coming as the weather has been absolutely beautiful all day. That said it was an absolute bargain and will do me good come the autumn months. May still get a few days wear out of it in April and intend on a big walk Sunday. |

Some people have all the luck. Here in Cambridgeshire we're saying "Do you think it will ever start raining?" The grass is always greener.......

Here in N Yorks it's sunshine and showers - I cut the grass for the first time yesterday, dodging the hail stones at the same time! It really is a most peculiar Spring, but we cannot complain though it never suits everyone. | | | |
