Members bolty58 Posted February 22, 2019 Members Share Posted February 22, 2019 Oddly, autumn seems to have come early down here too. February is usually frying time and I fucking hate it. For about a week now we have been having lovely cool nights and pleasant days in the mid to high 20's which doesn't usually start until mid-March. I reckon that Hadron Collider has fucked up the space/time continuum which is why they've shut the fucker down for two years. Hermann Minkowski has a lot to answer for. Don't mess with stuff.

Site Supporter Tonge moor green jacket Posted February 23, 2019 Site Supporter Share Posted February 23, 2019 Bollocks to football and rugby- today was magnificent. Actually working briefly in skins. Get some sun while you can. And it's still February. Great for the soul. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Car was showing 18 degrees. Presumably higher in direct sunlight. Quite ridiculous really. Been pleasant to see kids re-emerging to play out and neighbours starting to do stuff outside. Great time of year, outdoor life starting again, just a month or two early! Could even get a rhubarb harvest early march- madness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leigh white Posted February 25, 2019 Share Posted February 25, 2019 One thing Iv'e liked about this weather has been taking my mam around the lovely gardens at the hospice for a nice walk and seeing and hearing all the songbirds in full chirp.

frank_spencer Posted February 26, 2019 Share Posted February 26, 2019 Watching the league Cup final and thinking we had a glorious day too in 95. But that was in April not February. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without much googling, it seems that the Met Office hae made up the Meteorological seasons.

I was, until the bastard dogs lept into my newly prepared and planted strawberry bed, and dug the buggers up. I'm tempted to open a pop up Korean street food place.
