Thunder and rain in Arreau weather looks better further north towards Limoges, decision do we head West to Navarranx then up to St George's de didonne or head straight north.
Best have a croissant to decide.
Have a great day all

Have you done the Pyrenees already GH? Either time flies or I've been too busy!
If so, all you hoped for?

Gloomy and overcast here, 13c it says. Bank bl**dy holiday of course, I hate bank holidays, they always screw up my plans and to add even more insult to injury in 46 working years never had even one day off for them!! sensored1

Bright start up here in Tayside, conflicting weather reports again. One says sunny with some cloud, other says heavy showers all day shrugg

Guess we'll need to be ready for anything.

Take it easy

Good morning folks,

12 degrees and sunny now, Met Office forecast is for rain around 5 o'clock tonight, BBC is thunder and lightning at 7 and as for weather.com, their hourly forecast is dry all day but their daily forecast is for heavy rain..... scratch head

Nae chance, we've still not recovered from the last stay there. We're spending a few days close to the Tentsmuir nature reserve, very impressed with what we've seen so far. Well, the weather forecasts were both wrong. It was bright, sunny and warm with the occasional passing cloud although we've just had a light shower shrugg

by Dave 418 Sat Aug 26, 2023 8:17 pm

It was a nice day here with a slight chill in the breeze until this afternoon. I had the workshop door open and noticed it had become very dark and heavy. We had a large thunder storm and heavy rain for half an hour. Muttly came out afterwards mooching about. The garden must have smelt interesting after the rain.

by Dave Gee Sat Aug 26, 2023 10:51 pm

BBC were almost right, no thunder and lightning but it started pouring just after 7 and still is......

by burlingtonboaby Sun Aug 27, 2023 6:35 am

Nice sunny day yesterday,some dark clouds and thunder in the late afternoon,heavy showers overnight dried up this morning for a nice walk with Tag, nice sunrise.
Have a nice day, enjoy it and take care.

Gem of a site in Navarrenx rained all night, raining now and the forecast is rain as far as the eye can see.Better weather further north so that's today's heading.
Have a great day all

by Askit Sun Aug 27, 2023 9:17 am

Conflicting weather reports again shrugg

It's a bit overcast but mild, I'd be happy if it stays like this today but showers are more likely. Got the gear so we'll be out whatever.

Morning peeps,

15 degrees and overcast. Forecast is for it to stay like this for most of the day but there may be sunny intervals...

Have a good day and stay safe if you're touring.

by IanH Sun Aug 27, 2023 11:11 am

OK but not brilliant here, clouds and some sun.
Off to N Holland and N Germany, then N Poland starting Friday, looks mixed for all if you believe 14 day forecasts.
Glad not anywhere near the Italian Alps , indeed any Alps right now or next week....

Thanks both

The plan A site for Berlin is actually immediately across the road from the ex RAF Gatow, a place I have been many times. As you say now the site of the aircraft museum, which is, of course, compulsory!!

It is also easy to access without any risk of infringing the Berlin LEZ.

Pouring down with rain for a few hours, filling up the water butts, wee froglets love it. Have a look into hanger 3 ,should be a wee plague on the wall mentioning 7 Aviation flight AAC ) Teany weenie airways) back 5 decades ago, we did border patrols from Gatow when the wall was still in place.
Used to be some good restaurants along the Havel, have a great time.

Typical bank holiday weather here. Another dry morning followed by a wet afternoon. It reminds me of our days of tenting with kids. Wet kids and a dog were a challenge at times.

by Dave Gee Mon Aug 28, 2023 5:26 am

Morning Folks

Bit chilly this morning. 9 degrees and overcast. Forecast is to stay like this for most of the day.

Enjoy your trip Ian.

Nice walk yesterday morning, we had a couple of hours of rain during the afternoon and it was warm enough for a BBQ in the evening. Cool and bright today with no precipitation forecast rolleyes

Going to do a bit of the East Coast path so we'll prepare for any eventuality. Talking to the chap who looks after this site about the behaviour of some campers, and what he had to remove from a shower cubicle. Neither of us could work out if the person was desperate because the toilets were busy and caught short or just a moron. My vote is for the latter twiddle_thumbs

Take is easy folks
