Since I stopped working on Fridays it always seems to rain/snow etc - why?

Am I just becoming a grumpy wimp?

No Dave, it's part of being a Yorkshireman.

I hope the weather behaves next Tuesday as I'd quite like to get back out to Llyn Brianne. I accidentally deleted the shots I took there just after buying my K-m and I've been trying to find weather as good to take some new ones ever since. There should be water in the spillway after the past few days.
what are you intending to do? My T mount adapter should be at SRS in the next few days: the weather's set to go back the right side of -10, too, so we might get a decent show on the 22nd.....

Beer's already open and the curry will be ordered shortly.

Might watch the rugby..

..or just chill, drink and eat.

Well it does consistently come in the top ten when people are asked where they'd like to see closed road rallying here. It also passes the legendary Strata Florida byway which was used for navigation rallies by normal cars back in the '60s but thanks to heavy rain and lack of maintenance is now something of a challenge in a properly equipped 4x4.

I didn't say it was ALL about being a Yorkshireman, as for half white and half red rose does that make you a pink rose...

...that'd be rose wine...

...why does it all come back to drink?
