For how many minutes?

Nice in Yorkshire too today, although skies look a bit threatening at the moment...

Just take:
summer clothes
winter clothes
coats
flip flops
wellies
waterproofs
fan heater
hot water bottles
umbrella
sunshade

and you'll be fine!

Pretty much all day, and today too. Supposed to be a bit rubbish tomorrow though, before you get too jealous.

Might go on holiday in the UK for a day, next time we get a whole day of good weather forecast...

I got sunburnt in Ayrshire today. Really red shoulders! The TV coverage of the Open Golf in Troon is proof of the sun there today. As Billy Connolly says, there's no such thing as bad weather just the wrong clothes. So it's waterproofs tomorrow...

Who gives a **** about the weather!!??

It was here LONG before the human race!

And even since then we've had plenty time to adjust to it...

When you work outside in it day in day out, you just deal with it.....

Yeah! I dealt with it working outside for over 20 years and 50 years walking up Scottish mountains and I still haven't adjusted to it.
Who needs sunshine?? Well aparently our bodies need it, probably why I have a vitamin D deficiency or as its better known as the sunshine vitamin

It's been a lovely day up in Aviemore - but by lovely, I mean, not raining! We just dodge the showers and take waterproofs with us. But it would be nice if the weather were much warmer!
