gordon s Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Last lap this morning. Just our bedroom floor to screw down and job done. 1000 screws, umpteen battery recharges and knackered knees. Happy days. Can't get Evita out of my head after catching the film the other night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 4, 2012 Morning all, it is wet and miserable outside, I am quite dry inside despite the failed repair to the bathroom toilet by the landlord's contractor but just as miserable. A day examining my files to make sure management cannot find anything else wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Sleet covered the mountains in white this morning. Yesterday it was shirt sleeved order. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Thanks Pete for the Tornado weather explanation and the video. Max, I love the Karoo in all it's various moods and guises. I have spent countless holidays on various farms there and many long drives through it in all quarters of it's vastness. We had rain overnight but it cleared in the early morning so it's now a lovely cool day Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold The Stationmaster Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 4, 2012 Morning all, a soggy Thames Valley this morning and rain forecast for most of the day (plus hail showers). Ah well, it's good for the gardens Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 4, 2012 Morning all... Bit later on as our ISP appears to have had a problem over night, which but appears to be resolved by now. I think today will see us tidying up some and possibly going for a walk in the afternoon. Cheers everyone... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold BoD Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 4, 2012 Morning(ish) all. -1 C. here. It is snowing quite heavily and it is lying. Thankfully not on the roads athough that looks as that might be changing. Must head for the hills and see if I can find some deep stuff to play in.

RMweb Premium 45156 Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 4, 2012 Afternoon All Just been out for a lovely walk - as usual 45156 felt the cold, and 30747 was saying how balmy it was - temperture was about plus 3 with an easterly wind so it felt like about minus 3. I doubt we'll ever agree on when it's cold. Started off with very heavy rain, which appears to have turned to wet snow on some of the hills, but by no means all - there was snow lying on one slope, and none on another with the same orientation, and at the same height. The lad who was due to come and wash the car didn't show up, though as it was chucking it down with rain when he was due to come, that's not surprising. Plans for this afternoon include sitting doing as little as possible, though no doubt as I sit, I'll see jobs that need doing, and will make a start on them - it's the same every time I want to switch off! At least this week, I hope that I won't need to pull out any large pieces of furniture. Regards to All Stewart Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted March 4, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 4, 2012 Similar weather here Stewart 3c on the car thermometer and out in the wind and rain more like -3c unfortunately Mrs B feels the cold much more than I do so we were not out of the car for long.

RMweb Premium NGT6 1315 Posted March 5, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 5, 2012 Morning all (yawn)... It would appear it is raining slightly at this ungodly hour. However, it is rather balmy at 6°C. I signed up for an assistant teaching post last week and will thus be back at school on Mondays and Fridays - hopefully for the remainder of my time at uni. Obviously, I'm quite excited and I hope all will be going well. Cheers everyone... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted March 5, 2012 RMweb Gold Share Posted March 5, 2012 Morning all. Rather windy here but dry. The list today is just a shopping list. Trev, the container isn't mine! Tony Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonBradley Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hello again all. Any more Model Railway exhibition reports or pics? Another partly cloudy cooler day. Happy new week all. Survive Monday! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDolfelin Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Hi all. I'm interested in Trev's experiences. Not so long ago, sending anything to Nigeria was akin to setting it adrift in the Atlantic. Sounds like things have improved a bit. Is it still necessary to 'oil the wheels' a little? Mucky day here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 Morning All, The weather is filthy here this morning. Wet, cold and windy. The weekend was good. It was a pretty quiet one - we did some jobs around the house and didn't do anything too stressful! Have a good day everyone... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium skipepsi Posted March 5, 2012 RMweb Premium Share Posted March 5, 2012 Morning all, cold but dry outside feeling rough so I will do my best to survive Monday to quote Don. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
