Was out today working, fine on the land but as soonas I blasted in the rescue boat, boy was it "fresh" Anyway, this forums getting a little dull tonight so I thought I'd start the Snow thread, as we are going to get it.  Do you think its going to be like this? |

Having just looked out the window, yes...

I think today is a question of where are you and what do you want. Not got your desired weather, hang around for a couple of hours ------------- When you find a big kettle of crazy it's probably best not to stir it - Pointy Haired Boss Crew on 505 8780 |

woke up with a stinking hangover, all ready to go yacht racing, to see it pouring down with snow! quickest the hangover has disapeared - ever! also the quickest ive wanted to get back off the boat. snow turned into sleet then rain, then flat calm and bright sunshine. thankfully we were back in the bar by the time the sun came out! ------------- https://skiff-media.teemill.com/" rel="nofollow - T-SHIRTS https://www.photo4me.com/profile/23908/" rel="nofollow - PRINTS |

Snowing when I got up this morning, but it had stopped and started melting by the time I left for work. The road down the hill was still white though, had to drive very gingerly. Surprised the wife, she’s never not used to me driving slowly. |
