This winter will mostly be...

... a tropical heatwave!

I have arranged it for you all.

See, I have brought some cold weather gear that I really want to try out, so the law of sod states I wont get the chance, so get yer bibshorts ready!

Well I'd put my shorts away for the upcoming season, but I'll have to dig them out again now.Thanks Paul

After the amount of ice & snow we got locally in winter 2010 I thought I could do with extra traction while out walking in severe conditions, so for winter 2011 got some of these.

They are currently still in their packaging unused.

Ha! 3 pairs of the same sort of thing in this house.

Still untouched.

what ever the weather you can be sure the forecast will be wrong

Perhaps I should mention that when I bought my microspikes, the guy in the shop warned me it was going to be a milder winter...... He'd just bought a snowboard.

Hopefully it'll be dry! I remember that last winter where i live we had hardly any rain(about 15 days), so fingers crossed! We need some decent dry days, before the wet season(summer)comes back.

We got some as well; but, needed them in both 2010/ 2011 and 2011/2012. Damn chilly here, -15C over night with snow and ice for a few weeks.

Hope you all enjoyed the warm weekend I arranged for you.

I had to get out at 5am for it to be cold enough to test out my cold weather gear. Turns out I didnt need a base layer and an hour later I had to remove it, wring it out(!) before stashing it in the rear pocket.

Well, it had gone up to 7° by then!

Damn! I was looking forward to covering myself in goose fat again this year
