Why the weather sucks today
-
It's deceptively light here, but once you reach Hampshire or Wiltshire you start realising what everyone else is struggling through. I've missed two appointments in Farnborough (90 miles away) in the last fortnight due to road conditions. Having another go on Tuesday, so I'm expecting a snowfall sometime Monday evening...

And I was complaining about going 18 miles..

Sound familiar, when it comes to weather I usually expect these types of things. Although to be honest I can not complain that much about the last decade, winters were no way as bad as they were in the 1970s when I was a kid. Back then I was not driving in it and it was fun getting off school...

It's a journey I normally only have to make every 3 weeks, fortunately. The last two dates we've set have however been the day after a big snowfall. Hence I'll be watching the forecasts carefully on Monday afternoon!

Oh yes. I distinctly remember building igloos and tunnels in the stuff one winter during the 1970s (though that was in Durham - which has an altogether different climate - rather than Dorset) in the back yard of a friend's place. Happy memories. :)

Given the choice between insane and mundane, I know which one I'll choose every time. ;)

Same here. Insanity is so much more fun. :-\ Flynn
