  • The Spring 2013 - ha you're joking right - specific weather ranty rant thread.

    For $£%$'s sake - snow again? Come on - you're having a laugh.

    Enough of this nonsense already.

    We're due snow - indeed there was a brief flurry this morning.
    At the moment I can hear the wind howling about outside. I was going to see a friend for a coffee this evening but I think I'll leave it now!

      I don't mind the snow Zaz, it's the breeding cold wind that gets my old bones..............

          I'm clinging on to Mikey's sweet words.

          Please let there be warmer weather soon, so that I can sow my Summer dresses - ready to bloom in July.

          We had a really carp Winter in '75 - and look what happened in 76!

          Just a bit of warmth.........please? Pretty please? With seeds on top?

                The forecast here is for it to snow either 'light snow' or 'heavy snow' continuously from 10pm this evening through to 3am Sunday morning.

                Tell a lie - there is a 1 hour window tomorrow lunchtime with just 'menacing cloud' so at least I can nip out for the paper.

                Shame about going shopping/eat out with mum tomorrow after work; and the planned trip to Solihull on Saturday to Lakeland to replace my melted sieve, then onto Notcutts for peat free compo, cup of tea & a toasted teacake; and going to the Hill on Sunday to empty the compost bin onto the potato bed.

                Oh well, I guess I wasn't going to be planting the potatoes out any time soon anyway.

                  Four inches, which is no good to any woman. Either snow properly or preferably NOT AT ALL when I've potted bl**dy yacon and oca.

                    Your not going to be happy, but.

                    Its March, snow is not unusual, providing it starts to warm up in April then I shall be happy. Much better than it being 'arris about' like last year.

                      We don't do snow. In March. In Somerset. It's just not on.

                              It's rubbish, I'd actually managed to arrange some helpers and a large car to finish weeding, digging and clearing the ton of junk from my new plot but at this rate we'll all need flippers and snorkels! Maybe I should just go with the flow and dig a swimming pool instead
