as you all know I work out doors.
the weather today made that impossible.
so I got even fatter and had a early morning nap:augie
me Jacqui works with me so we had a sofa each :augie
it was snowin before I shut my eyes,quite a lot.

we decided go work at lunch as the sun came out with blue skyes.

we live in a vally (that worries me these days) and it was just wet pavements here.
we went 10 mins away (1000 feet up where we work) and it has deffinatly got a different climate.
it was 1.5" deep.
we worked till 4 and it was only melted slightly.
its froze tonight here with more snow to come tonight.

its winter:clap

I'm in Cramlington 9 mile north of Newcastle & 4-5 mile west of Blyth (smack city:doh) We often go camping up at Belford which is between Alnwick & Berwick upon Tweed just off the A1 & as a bonus there are some nice green lanes around there too nothing hard but I enjoy them due to the wildlife we've seen on them. I see your in the NW we often go over to carlisle as my parents have their second home there

I'm from Rochdale originally, lived there from about 1960 until 2005.
We used to live at Sudden. :thumbs

Rochdale used to be a nice friendly town, but it changed over the years and not always
for the best...............:augie

The Outlaws live in Crewe, and Crewe railway station is closed as some roofing material has caught fire on the overhead wires...
The roof on the post office there has been ripped off too.

100 mph winds expected:eek:

Far to much rain here & the wind has picked right up would have normally parked the motor on the outer drive in winds like this but it'll get hit by the wheelie bins that are drag racing down the street:lol so will just have to hope our dodgy roof don't start spitting tiles off or they'll land on top of the truck:doh
