Tis a bit nippy up here

Post by tattie »

Is it me or has the weather taken a 3 month step backwards. As I write this it is 3.8 deg 8O ffs and hard frost forecast for tonight, this is the 10th of May!!!!!!!, we had brief flurries of snow today and when I was out with the dog a wee while ago the North wind was going through me rather than round me, winter jackets as well. This is our third week of this Northern airstream.

4 weeks ago I was sitting in Ullapool in 16/18 deg :cool2 looking forward to a "good summer"
At this rate the Swallows will be heading off back down the road for some better weather, poor little buggers. :confused

There now I am feeling warmer already :beer:


Cheers

I had to pop a bit of fleece over the early Alpine strawberries, otherwise plain muesli..... can't have that.

I blame Labour.













And the others.
All of them.



And the Met Office.





And those greedy Greenhouse heater mnfr's, putting out their paraffin fumes, destroying the environment.






And you. It's your fault too.
Did you know the average cow emits enough greenhouse farts (methane) to cover a football pitch to the depth of three feet?

And you're not eating them quick enough, so off to McDonalds with you.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
