Yesterday I took some photos for a friend’s sister’s wedding. There was no official photographer and they asked if I would take some pictures as a favour because they know I enjoy photography. I did try to explain that enjoying something is not the same as being good at it, but still got persuaded to […]

(S)no(w) rubbish collection

Thursday’s light dusting of snow merely made me get to work about 2 minutes later than normal. Traffic was very light and it was only the need to drive a bit slower than normal which held us up. Everyone else seemed to be able to get in OK as well. Even Chrystal’s school was open […]

Heavy weather
January 26th, 2007 · Comments Off on Heavy weather · Life
One of the least original things to say must be to comment on how ridiculous it is that in a country which experiences winter every year, and has done for as long as anyone can remember, our services just can’t cope. The only thing more predictable than the fact that it will get cold at […]
What I did on my holidays – Wednesday morning
August 26th, 2006 · 2 Comments · Life
Wednesday morning I was woken by torrential rain. Having no clock or watch in the sleeping part of the tent I got up and Jayne and I sat outside under the gazebo and had a coffee, wondering if it would ever stop raining. Then we dug out a watch and found out that it was […]

The Big Freeze

Its that time of year when I feel ashamed to be British. Maybe ashamed is too strong a word; embarrassed is probably nearer the mark. The reason is, of course, that we have a little bit of seasonal weather and the country is thrown into chaos.

Now the weather has got a bit wintry it is time for the annual battle of the sexes. The venue is just about every office in the country, where some people (mainly men) have the air conditioning turned on and others (mainly women) have space heaters plugged in under the desk.

Jo is not the only one to find it frosty this morning. This is a photo of the roof of our car today.

Boy is it windy out there tonight! In the time I have lived in Crawley I have noticed that it seems to be very prone to winds. When its not windy, its likely to be foggy. It must have taken a real genius to decide that its the ideal place for Britain’s second-busiest airport!

Heavy weather

With all the kids away at various places today, Jayne and I went down to the Hawth to visit the International Mela. It got a good bit of publicity yesterday on the BBC South-East news, but it wasn’t the same vibe as last year. Partly this is because we went without any children, but a […]
