Winter set to return...

[RobinP]

...on Sunday and Monday around the coastal areas of England. Traffic chaos here we come

[tufftie]

LOL - picked a good weekend for camping!!! Not coastal but just checked the weather charts and it does say - rainy and chilly Hope the showers are nice and warm

[James M]

Hopefully with the strength of the sun at this time of year there will be some good convection in land and we get some hefty snow showers.

[juliejam]

Well it looks like heavy snow showers here for me on saturday and hail on sunday ...sounds like fun..

Blow some down to the leafy county - i'd much prefer snow to rain

[LoveT]

I live in hope - we haven't had one here yet !

Ah, Tufftie, I've been camping in the Welsh mountains at this time of year. Had the campsite to myself too! And the carton of milk I put outside the tent was frozen in the morning too! You'll have a great time. Take a hot water bottle, and a woolly hat and wear it to bed.

Hadn't thought of a hot water bottle!!! Thanks for that Think i'll give the hat a miss though (lol - everytime i hear the word hat i keep thinking of a klezmatics tune!)

[badgerwatcher]

Never go anywhere without a hot water bottle or two.
I don't know the song, because I'm out of touch with the real world most of the time, not being from this planet. But honestly a wooly hat will save you freezing! And who takes glamour camping?

[tufftie]

it's a cosy sleeping bag with hoods - been in many a freezing village hall with them on conservation tasks Glamour - what's that then?!!! - though i'm still not going to wear a sexy woolly hat...even if it's a colourful as yours

Think the song is a traditional klezma tune

[Adam Cheeseman]

Adam - don't worry about the weather if you have a hat by the sounds of it!!

[badgerwatcher]

Always made a determined effort never to listen to Tom Jones!

Having worked the phones for the Police for a couple of years wet/cold/miserable days were the best in the school holidays - less 'phone calls about kids being kids (i.e. just playing - not being anti-social so and so's)

Haven't you got a big teddy bear to keep you warm..

[Poirot]

It certainly looks like winter is back with the snow coming this weekend, having to put bags over some bushes to stop their buds dropping off

On the plus side if it snows hard enough sleding

Well Saturday night it rained and it seemed to be wet and windy all night but when we opened the tent in the morning we were greeted by beautiful white scenery - as well as snow falling in on us - lol Real mix of weather - warm in the sun but icy in the wind - but some beautiful starry nights

[andyc123]

.......and we not forecast to get even more snow to.... well its actually today now - look at the time! lol - strange mix of weather recently with nice warm spells one minute and very cold and hailing the next.

[RobSutton]

Saturday morning (12th April) we woke up to about and inch and a half of fresh snow - ee lad but it did look grand. Gone by midday though.
