Northerners!

[snohare]

Aye, you know you're really far North when the electrons slow down and the rules of grammar and punctuation change !

[singleseeder]

Glad that you enjoyed the North East. I have been up here for a few years now and just love it. The gardening is different to Herts though.

Today is just luverley........ been in the garden all day. Had a sit and a doze/sunbathe at lunchtime and my skin is positively red now Now off to a BBQ at my daughter's after she has been on the beach all day. Can't beat it can you?

Come back soon Zazen

Sounds like you're having a fab time. Have you taken the Camper?

We did indeed.

[Glutton4...]

Sorry, I've forgotten her name! Hope she behaved, and that you'll be posting piccies of the scenery!?

Harvested stuff for dinner in the drizzle. No sun at all today. No idea what those folk on the news are on about.

Although I have yet again got a bumper crop of September broad beans...

Starting to feel like Don Quixote 'tilting at windmills'

I was up in northumbria recently too, was absolutley stunning. sunny all weekend, except for when we took a detour off the M1 to get to a supermarket late at night and ended up driving across the pennines i think...horrific hills and kept hitting very thick fog. made the last hour of the journey horrendous considering i'd just had a very relaxed 6 hour drive previous.

I haven't got solar panels, but I'd love to live by one of those windmill things, i can watch them for hours....probably because there's nothing in my head....

[Snadger]

You'll have to excuse me, I should have put this in the rant thread!

I've just bought a house with a lovely view of the rolling hills to the horizon (about 7 mile away). Just found out they are going to site windmills across the horizon because its elevated and windy!

Dear God Zaz you trying to start a war???!!

[snohare]

Northerners can have solar panels too - my Dad has them, is currently enjoying watching the little meter clock up income for him (it was two folk like my Dad fighting over a penny that invented copper wire ) - and he's in the Cairngorms. People keep telling me they don't work up here - I boil a kettle disproving that !

If the predictions for 2017 are accurate, we will all want as many windmills as possible then - the powers that be are unanimous that there will be brownouts if not blackouts at that point, because we have to retire so many old generating stations.

What Rules ??

Ah, you must live near Tillydrone...no rules sounds like the Hayton Road area to me !
