Re: Bad weather a'coming Sunday 13th

Sounds like last year all over again. I remember the 36hrs of continuous rain on the first weekend only too well.
Almost glad I'm making cakes rather than doing the Challenge - but deep down I'd still rather be out there!

I agree with you Ali. I love watching those little SPOT-dots moving across the Highlands but many times every day I'm contemplating : "Where would I be now if I was walking there myself ?"

Re: Bad weather a'coming Sunday 13th

Lying in bed listening to the wind grab the trees and my new polytunnel I spare a thought for all those in the wee nylon hoosies in the glens.
Just woken by the rain drumming on the Velux, the cat wants fed, I'll need to do a Tescos for the week ahead, my feet are dry and if it gets a bit cooler like the forecast says the lecky blanket will be on at night. I'm afraid I find that much more attractive than a TGOC given the conditions.

I really really hope it perks up this week for all those on their routes and they are safe and sound (if a tad damp).

Re: Bad weather a'coming Sunday 13th

Never mind the winds were only 80mph, last year they were 100mph during the storm! Things can only get better and I hope they do.
