old'un Posted February 7, 2020 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2020 Just been looking at the coming weather and the experts saying February/March 2020 could see another beast from the east with average tempter of around -10c and snow drifts around 4 to 5 feet. And some of my farmers were hoping to-do some sowing this month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems to me we are more seeing a move of the seasons with each season coming later than we are used to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShootingEgg Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 There has been one scientist saying the sun is in a period of cooling which will mean we get colder spells. If this is true or not I don't know, I'm no scientist.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walker570 Posted February 8, 2020 Report Share Posted February 8, 2020 (edited) Whatever and how smart we all think we are, there is nowt we can do about it. Dig in batten down and ride it out. Looks like indoor play tomorow so I'll get a load of cases primed and some 6mmBench Rest squeezed down to 22 Bench Rest. Monday morning for sure the tree rats will be hungry Approaching 80yrs and I have seen it all believe me.

But it's about 90 years of paint (multiple layers and colours) so it's going to be fun.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
