Summer has arrived.

[summerdays]

Winter is about to make a comeback

Not completely convinced it left ... I think it was playing with us!

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

Nope it has not arrived here.
8.7 Degs c Drizzle & Fog

Pfffft, don't know you are born mate!

Summer has been here since Saturday but its gone now. Pouring with rain. I put my laundry out on the line. Sorry

We don't have ice-cream vans in our neck of the woods, but they have been muck spreading here. Does that count?

 

[Mad Doug Biker]

There is an ice cream van here that plays 'The Liberty Belle' (the Monty Python tune).

Haven't heard it recently, but it does seem to turn up randomly throughout the year regardless of the weather.

Forecast is still good for tomorrow down here, up to 18/19 degrees. That'll be 3 days on the trot in shorts. Carpe knieem. Back to normal for Friday though.

Got the Birkenstocks out yesterday, middle class sandals are go!

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

That's why they're called cyclones....

 

[SatNavSaysStraightOn]

I have tried cycling through a hurricane. I think I will give a cyclone a miss,
(PS, isn't it a touch off course for a cyclone - thought they were the pacific... but I dropped geography early on...)

Bit of a cool change for this weekend for most of us. The wind is swinging around from NW again. Sheesh.

You are sort of thinking of tropical cyclones. Basically all our weather we have here in the UK is a mixture of cyclones and anti-cyclones (low and high pressure put simply), where bad weather is normally associated with cyclones/low pressure and that weird orange object that occasionally appears in the sky are normally associated with high pressure (anti-cyclones).

thank you - I simply know them as high/low pressure.
today's threat of headwinds in both directions (like that isn't always the case ) has been rescinded, so looks like I will only get a headwind for half of today's 'lunch at mum's journey! anyhow, the leg warmers have gone back on!

I wish I'd worn my winter boots for last nights commute, feet were a bit chilly coming home at 6am

T'The Liberty Belle' (the Monty Python tune).

Never knew the name of that tune. This is now my 'fact of the day'. Thanks
