I'm back! :D

Temp was 82F-88F in the south of France over the last couple of weeks. 8)

I got back to the UK yesterday and just drove up from London and it has rained all the way. Not only that I have had to put the central heating on when I got home. :shock:
Bloody British weather. :( :lol:

Glad to hear that you have had good weather and enough of the heat on your trip Dave... :D Sad that you have rain at home do, but then you can spend more time in the garage with the Chally without feeling that you miss the weather outside...(?) :roll:

We have had the most "terrible" summer ever here i think. Mostly rain and cloud.. I hope we will have a good fall instead, today is a nice day with sun and about 50 F, nice enough to take the Black out for a spin... 8)

Hope you all have a great weekend guys, take care!

:thumbsup:

We have been counting the days.... It has been an difficult task though since we did not know when you planned to get back. :s006:

Hopefully you have run out of money now, so that you can not afford to travel away from your computer within a couple of years or so. :twisted: :biggrin:

You picked the right weekend to go back home!
A friend of mine just went to the Eurofinals alone (on a bike), and that will remain a very vivid memory... Woodstock-deep mud fields, no running till sunday afternoon, and a 1200 km round-trip under the rain.
England's been a little bit damp in the last few days...

Yeah it has been a rude awakening on my return. 4-inches of rain since Friday where I live in the North. But that is on top of a week of constant rain so the ground was already completely saturated. Floods all over the place.

More rain expected from tomorrow for the rest of the week.

Is that a recent photo? I want to party with that dude. :)

Hotter then heck over here. Enjoy your cool rain mates. I'm jealous. 8) 95 F everyday wears on you when working outside. It's just draining. :oops:

Hmmnn...
Sounds like a typical weather report from Merry 'Ol England.
I've been fortunate to be there in Nov-Dec and actually had a few sunny 65 Degree days! (Made the walk to the pub quite nice)
Welcome back Dave!
