More than mild, would describe this morning as warm! Not aware of the fireworks we usually get after the bells, and no signs of life around this morning so far.

Wishing you all health and happiness for the coming year.

David.

14°c here, dry with a brisk wind blowing. We had fireworks going off randomly from 6pm with a volley at midnight. Our street was as dead as a dodo with nothing or nobody moving. First footing has pretty much died out, not sure carrying a lump of smokeless coal and a bit of vegan black bun works anyway. We had a small (aye right) libation before retiring after watching the great (aye right) hogmanay TV rolleyes

Need to get out for our New Year walk, looks like great conditions for it up!

Well our excitement on New Year’s Eve was Lulu on Jools Holland's Hootenanny on Beeb 2. We saw her at the Albert Hall a month or two back again with the Jools Holland Orchestra and she stole the show, particularly when she asked if anyone recalled a number she did some years back called “Shout”. Did we remember…well the whole audience did and were up on their feet (including me and that’s not me) joined in. Dry warm and sunny here. Off to Beckenham Place Park for a couple of hours of fresh air.

Happy new year all. Just back from a long walk around the village didn't need a jacket it is so warm.
Time for shorts again if this keeps up.
Dry with a gentle breeze and sunny periods
Birds are singing there hearts out and daffodils in abundance.
Have a great day all especially those who woke up with a sore head.

Turned into a glorious sunny day here too, still a stiff breeze blowing but it's a warm wind. Had a lovely walk to blow away the cobwebs and I was really surprised to see many shops open.

Our Camillias are still in bud, any flowering would be killed by the frost........and we will get frost before the month (or even week) is out happyyes

Too windy on the east coast of Anglesey to put washing out. Wind is howling round the house!

It was almost spring like walking this evening. We have decided to move our travels forward by a week leaving on Wednesday after my appointment. Maybe this weather last until next weekend giving us chance to do some walking.

by burlingtonboaby Sun Jan 02, 2022 4:43 am

Dry mild night,( mole skins off) out for a walk with Tag before the forecasted wet front comes in
New alarm clock, LGV driver neighbour goes of to walk at 3.30a.m, his Honda car has a bean can exhaust and he likes every one know he's up, I'm fine, i can go back to bed , when I return home with Tag.
Have a nice day,enjoy the start of 2022.

Cooler again this morning but very still and peaceful at present. Rain forecast for late afternoon then marked fall in temperature and increase in winds on the way.

Have a good day.

by Askit Sun Jan 02, 2022 9:25 am

Absolutely beautiful day yesterday until the rain came about 6pm. Dry and sunny now with hardly a drop in the temperature. I'll be really glad when all this enjoying ourselves stops and we can get back to normal content

by burlingtonboaby Sun Jan 02, 2022 9:51 am

Rain cleared by 8 am, leaving a nice blue sky. Several jets passing over heading north.
Have a good day.

Still really warm but raining on and off this morning, good job there are things to finish off indoors, dry lining the wall where the doors have come out then have to mud it. Tiles to lay as well so plenty to do.

Have a great day all allthumbz

All kitted out at 11.00 am for our daily walk around the village. Still wearing shorts but just as we left the front door the rain started. Gone by 12.30 so another go. Stiff breeze but finished in the dry, hardly anyone about. Can't still be sobering up surely ??
Keep safe

Still mild so far but we are expecting the cold blast from the north to change all that. Very windy overnight and raining now with grey skies so I guess it's on for a while. Got a few things to sort out indoors so no plans to go out, unless the boss has other ideas snigger

by Bilbobaggins Mon Jan 03, 2022 9:10 am

Just back from Dundee, went to Morrisons as a change from usual Tesco and Asda we have in town. Absolutely tipping it down, road was quiet as today and tomorrow both bank holiday in Scotland, most people not back to work or school till Wednesday.

Feet up with a cuppa then will decide what jobs to tackle today.

Stay safe

Cooler today still 12 degrees though. Had to do a covid test last night, all the usual symptoms and feeling drained but it was negative so did a second and that was the same. Skies are grey but it is dry so maybe take a walk out in the fresh air to get the mojo back.

Temperature sitting at 0, cars iced up and bird bath frozen. We are just at the southern edge of yellow weather warning for strong winds later today. And should get sleet rather than snow. Not a day for outside jobs. Still bank holiday up here today so quiet day in store I think.

Stay safe

by groundhog Tue Jan 04, 2022 9:14 am

Poorly GH this morning streaming head cold cough and feeling lifeless. Waterworks are closed and full of stinging bees. Haven't eaten anything since rwo days ago. Totally unlike me to get like this. Doc is phoning later for a chat.
Still mild here some breaks in cloud but I won't be doing anything for now.
Have a great day all
