Continue readingSo, after much media hype the storm to end all storms (as it was billed) proved to be somewhat disapointing. It seems odd to say something that wasn’t as devastating as it could have been is disappointing. Please don’t think…
Continue readingI’ve been feeling a bit left out. It does seem that I live in just about the only county in Britain that isn’t currently affected by snow. There’s snow to the north of me, snow to the south of me,…
Continue readingIt’s kind of ironic that when we finally get snow of any note, the rest of the country appears to have got tired of the white stuff and are now concerned about the danger it brings and how much longer…
Continue readingIt’s a blustery afternoon, too wet for gardening, so instead I set about finishing up this year’s jam making: today, strawberry jam – my favourite. Further to my experiences with the raspberry jam the other day, I make it in…
Continue readingFinally we get rain; not much rain but some rain. I got the washing in, and then returned to the patio, outstretched my arms and felt the large, warm, droplets of water on my face. Bliss! It’s enough to make…
Continue reading~ And back to John Lewis on a Saturday – the novelty is wearing off of our Saturday trips to John Lewis – to see Nick for a final kitchen planning appointment. We review the plans and make a few…
Continue readingYesterday was threatening. Today, the rain and the wind and dark swept in. I don’t think it has got light all day. Umm… I bussed it to work today it was so bleak and foreboding and dark and wet. Now…
Continue reading1. On Wednesday night, the weather looked good for Saturday and Saturday night, but come yesterday morning it was altogether much more of a ‘damp’ picture. That said, they are now saying its going to be nice on Friday again,…
Continue readingSo rain was always on the forecast for today, so I was always planning to get the bus. That said, when I was getting up, the weather actually looked okay-ish, an I was halfway tempted to cycle it. By the…
Continue readingAll I can say is, it had better rain this afternoon â say between 4 and 5 o’clock! I say this, not because I want it to rain but because I don’t want my feelings of being tricked by the…
Continue readingIt’s warm today, and I feel a bit stuffy and sticky in my sweater. Yesterday I had a thinner shirt on, which is weird because yesterday it was freezing. It’s all the wrong way out.
Continue readingIt’s a beautiful day out there, but by heck it’s cold. It was a nice cycle ride though, into work, even if my tootsies were frozen upon arrival. And my tummy seems to be a little bit flatter â or…
Continue readingSnow! Itâs hypnotic, snow in headlights as Emma and I drove in convoy through High Wycombe after dinner and budget discussions with her parents. Kind of an awkward experience, it does sound like we can have enough for the non-fussy…
Continue readingWhilst my heart goes out to all those affected by this weekend’s flooding, one has to think that you should not be surprised when flood plains flood. After all, the event is there in the name isn’t it? I also…
Continue readingYught! I woke the sound of rain – heavy rain, and decided, considering the forecast to ditch my normal, trust two wheels and bus it from the park & ride. I think Iâve made the right decision. Weâre sinking into…
Continue readingThis is indeed true, what I say. However what is, perhaps more curiously interesting is that despite the (pretty much universal) perception that we have had a near two months of constant rain, I’m not sure if that’s been the…
Continue readingThe water filter here in the H215 corridor is out of action today (the lights on, but no water comes out) so I’ve had to cross quad to the canteen to get my pint of water. Warm and sunny one…
Continue reading1. At about 3.30 this afternoon it absolutely pissed it down with rain, and my heart sank. By 4 o’clock though it had cleared up to a mild drizzle, and there was even a wee bit of blue sky visible…
Continue reading1. Yes, dear readers Britain has once again been ravaged by storms. And yes it has been very bad in places (did anyone see the footage of that aeroplane trying to take off from Birmingham airport?), but like all of…
