Did you miss me?

by **dave-r** » 05 Sep 2008 18:06

I'm back!

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

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.

Glad to hear that you have had good weather and enough of the heat on your trip Dave...

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...

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:

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.

Dave was off at a Status Quo convention in France!!!

here is the proof!! :s024:

by **Jon** » 09 Sep 2008 0:43

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.

95 F everyday wears on you when working outside. It's just draining. :oops:

Yet another beer? Is that really a wise decision? :roll:

Thanks for the pic! :nod:

Had to put the heating on? And I always thought Geordies were hard.......
Hope that water world on your doorstep ain't affecting you too much Dave

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!

You have to step over dead sheep at the moment. Quite a number have drowned. :shock:
