Love Shoes Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Well I am in southern Spain and it is cold here, not too sure about the temp, but it feels about 8 ....... we have just put the heating on, and my hands are really cold. I know I am a bit of a wuss now where the weather is concerned and forget how cold I was in the UK, at first it was warm for me at this time of the year after leaving the UK, now I am cold, I think it has something to do with becoming acclimatized ...... either that or I am getting a cold again :dull: The sun has been out today, but it is a cold sun :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have forgotten what snow looks, feels, smells, tastes like, but I have a friend who is currently in Russia working and he commented last night when he emailed me that he was fed up with Narnia Land, it must be bad there because he lives in the UK: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Hi Love Shoes - I like walking in the thick snow which does not get you soaking wet, but it's very wet today but still lying on the ground!!! I remember being in Spain in February a couple of years ago and it was freezing and I had to end up buying a big fleece as I was not expecting it to be soooo cold. I love looking at the snow but they are rotten here at keeping the roads clear so it is not enjoyable to drive in. Hope it gets a bit warmer for you soon, we've no chance lol!!

Theres a car boot at the farm down the clyde valley and theres one in lanark, i havent been in ages but i've heard they are still good. Hopefully the weather will be okay for him coming down because he only gets to stay for 1 night and then has to go back up, rubbish no plans at the moment, still havent found sponsorship and i think he's starting to give up on the whole idea and thinking of buying a house Im going to change mine to a nice tropical one or some koalas!!

Yeah the farm one is where we go, it's ok better than the rubbish one inside at Lanark, was not impressed as we stayed in a queue for ages and they let the regulars drive to the front of the queue for their regular spot. There is also a couple in Glasgow I might have to consider as sooooo much stuff. AW poor you, hope you get to see him soon for much longer and I hope all your plans come together soon with regard to sponsorship, tell him to keep positive ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 Seriously??? that's pretty sad me thinks :yes: Will just try and stick to ebay and gumtree and hopefully the local car boot, but I am tempted by blochairn as hear you get rid of everything you take which is what I really want.

Waaaaay toooo much like hard work for me, especially on a sunday. This is why I gave most of my stuff to charity, couldn´t be bothered getting up in the middle of the night, it sucks :laugh: plus no one is buying anything here, so by the time I have paid for a pitch, driven 30 KM and then unloaded and loaded again I might as well have stayed in bed :SLEEP: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
