lxtav Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Did hear that we were to get a winter like last year or worse and that started at this time of the year. Funny though I suddenly became everyones friend for a month as I have a 4x4 pick up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlistairB Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 ******, i'm off to Fort William in a couple of weeks time - could be interesting! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lxtav Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Apparently this info didn't come from the Met office but was from the company that has predicted the last couple of winters and the bad summer that the Met office said would be a barbecue summer. Just have to wait and see but they do seem to have a pretty good track record better of getting it right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gixer1 Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) according to the news we are due to get hit with a blizzard tonight in the N/E.... Odd, as Elgin is only 75 miles away and it's still a nice day here with no wind... Edited November 25, 2011 by gixer1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackpowder Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 according to the news we are due to get hit with a blizzard tonight in the N/E.... Odd, as Elgin is only 75 miles away and it's still a nice day here with no wind... Drove into Berwick at 11.30 am this morning through really strong west wind and heavy sleet showers, its now bright sunshine and not a cloud to be seen. The heavy snow last year started around a year ago to today, nice snowy drive to the Shoot for our Big Day with beaters and standing every drive but had to cancel due to snow. The spaniels were like proverbial snow balls with accumulated snow on the legs. Blackpowder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacksdad Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 Well it started off warm and sunny in Oldham, but that soon changed when I went outside to fix my Trooper.....gales, sleet, hail, the full works, I was kneeling on the winch bumper leaning over the engine, with hail and rain lashing me up the gap twixt jeans and jacket...not nice!

Vince Green Posted November 25, 2011 Report Share Posted November 25, 2011 (edited) 12" of snow - lovely! More than enough food and drink in the cupboard, plenty of paraffin for the heaters in the out houses. Bring it on. Watch TV, lie in, No work, what could be nicer? Out with the kids and the toboggan. You just have to adjust to your envirionment. Now my mate in Wales last year, no food, running low on oil, Local petrol station out of gas cylinders, what a disaster. Cut off for weeks, sleeping with the dogs in the bed to keep warm. Edited November 25, 2011 by Vince Green Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
