I find those miniature bottles of red are a great preventive medicine and the cabin pressure seems to have a nice decanting effect on the wine.

simmo Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 who'd of thunk it.. A few days ago we where in snow blizzards and this evening I'm sat with a beer in the living room with the paddy O'doors wide open. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few days ago we where in snow blizzards and this evening I'm sat with a beer in the living room with the paddy O'doors wide open. Same here in Scotland. A couple of weeks ago we had 'The Beast From the East Part 1' and were snowed in for a few days. Great community spirit, neighbours getting together to organise snow shovelling, communal shopping for human and animal feed, and the kids playing out with the neighbours kids, building igloos and sledging down hills. The 'Beast From the East Part 2' struck last weekend, and unfortunately we ran out of gas. Offers of hot showers from the neighbours were plenty. On Monday and Tuesday I sat outside on a chair in the patch of mud and builders rubble I call my garden, and enjoyed the warmth of the sun on my face whilst having a tea/coffee and reading a book. Today we were back to low temperatures and a biting wind, but I know that spring is around the corner. It is so close I can almost taste it. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was so good when they reached the age when they could go without me. I've said this before somewhere else on the forum .............. I have a photo of me and three friends in our teens sunbathing on Good Friday and by Easter Monday it was snowing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be a glorious, warm sunny day today then tomorrow could have wind blasting from the ocean or the mountains and showers. Not so much during summer but from autumn onward. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
