gonzo Posted September 25, 2024 Author Posted September 25, 2024 Autumnal sky over Little Thornton last night Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 25, 2024 Posted September 25, 2024 Late summer can give some tremendous skies. Might be bollocks, but I wonder if the lower sun angle plays a part. Quote

Not in Crawley Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 3 minutes ago, Tonge moor green jacket said: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cn9dj2nry7qo.amp My colleague lives in village near Oxford, the whole place is flooded, can't get a train as the station is totally shut. If it makes people feel better, it's full of really rich folk who sold up and moved into Cotswold/Oxfordshire villages. Have to say the deep south east has been fine, lovely blue skies with a few showers but that's it. Quote
Dr Faustus Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Fecking windy on the 61 tonight, was wobbling Quote
deeane Koontz Posted September 26, 2024 Posted September 26, 2024 Plane was circling low when I was out for a walk just then. Take it they'd been having fun landing at Manchester 🙂 Quote
Not in Crawley Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Feels like the first day of autumn down here - daughter's sponsored walk called off due to 'wind and rain' - bloody southerners. Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Glorious today. Dropped a tree, snedded, sliced and stacked. All in sunshine, clear fresh air, with the refreshing scent of pine. Decent workout too. Good for the soul. As shite as the weather can be, days like today make up for it. Would never want to spend days in laboratories again. Quote
BobyBrno Posted September 27, 2024 Posted September 27, 2024 Love Autumn when it’s like this. Looking forward to a Mod weekend.😉 Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted September 30, 2024 Posted September 30, 2024 There was a story in the media a while back about the village. Can't remember what it was now. Maybe a TV show? Quote

Jamesplaces do lots of guides for walks around many of their great pubs. Another good guide here. https://www.visitribblevalley.co.uk/walking/ Weather not as good today so a car ride rather than a walk. Quote
Winchester White Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 Glad we don't get this over here... Quote
Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 It will probably arrive in its weakened form in a few days. Actually been a couple of reasonable days so far. Bit gloomy early this morning, but decent enough later. Quote

Tonge moor green jacket Posted October 8, 2024 Posted October 8, 2024 Haha- don't jinx it! Been a bit damp and thundery down south today by all accounts. Quote

meanderson93 Posted October 9, 2024 Posted October 9, 2024 Got our wedding coming up last weekend of October, all self contained in one venue so not too concerned about the weather, but she picked this place partly because of the lovely view you get across the countryside at sunset from the reception room/conservatory. So I'm hoping for at least some evening sun for the pictures she's been imagining. As long as the tail end of one of these tropical storms doesn't get picked up by the gulf stream I think we'll manage though, long range forecasts suggest some higher pressure systems at back end of the month, so fingers crossed.
