Have a great trip Tony take it easy. We have not moved for three days now just us and 3 French vans in an aire for about 30.
Bit more cloud today which is welcome as it has been pretty hot. 24 degrees.
Easy lunch then a swim and evening paddle along the sandy beach. May even have to embibe in a wee whisky later to toast you all.
Have a great day all

Overnight rain showers cleared by 4, cool breeze of the coast,ideal for Tag walking.
Have a good trip Tony, enjoy the rest of yours GH.
Have a nice day.

Thanks folks, think we'll be needing our raincoats 

Lovely start to the day here, sunny and bright but cool. Forecast to get up to 21°c later, nice travelling weather.

Hope the new boots are not pinching Boaby

Still a wee bit of life on one pair of old yuns Tony, my Rockports have been re soled twice ,so there done. Not worn the new shoes yet.
Did you take your wellies Tony,mind the last time,
Suns out, clear blue sky, 21 degrees are you anywhere nice.
Boaby

No wellies aboard, we like to live dangerously   

Enjoying the late evening sun in the south of Scotland on our way to Barnard Castle (no specsavers jokes please). Looks like we're in for a bit of a battering there, weatherwise. Heading over to bangers and cash country after that and then home via the lakes.

Great chippy in Thornton le Dale., and if you haven't booked a site yet, Prospect Farm behind Mathewsons.

Barnard Castle has nice CMC site, extended earlier this year with another 20 pitches but facilities block not increased, quite a walk from new pitches to shower block. Bowes museum highly recommended with lovely tearoom. Also not too far to railway museum at Shildon

Might see you in the Lakes, we are booked in to small site at Sizergh Barn from Friday next week for four nights

Autumnal feel to the air, clear starlite sky,hardly a breeze.nice walk with Tag down the harbour and along the north promanard.
Get out before the rain starts, have a nice day,
Boaby

Thanks Paul, heading to Overbrook but we may well hit the chippy. Also thanks BB, we've been to BC a few times in the past, had to cancel last year because I had you know what   

Lovely sunny morning, going to enjoy it before the wet stuff arrives tomorrow.

Very mild night and heavy cloud cover,light rain shower at 5.30, out with Tag before the rain started.
Have a nice weekend ,take care if your traveling ( Tony GH)
Boaby

Thanks Boaby, moving to BC later (don't want to get there before 1pm  )

Dry right now but overcast and you can feel the rain on the way. Just got to take it as it comes eh 

Didn't have to wait long for the first shower before we left, and we got a few more on the road. Don't know who got all the heavy rain but it's not too bad here this evening. Almost temped to get the bbq out........almost 

Turned out nice and warm, 23 degrees, overcast now with the odd spot of rain,managed to get a big towel wash out and dried.
Have a nice day.
Boaby

Haven't moved for a week still sunny 27 degrees today but have had storms at night. Heading off tomorrow for a change of scene, place called Nozay in Loire but have no idea what is there. Just chasing the sun as it is going to be wet over the coast. 
Enjoy your travels Tony and all take care. 
GH

Some overnight showers, dry enough for a good walk with Tag, still overcast and muggy.
Pleased to see your getting the good weather GH.take care Tony.
Have a nice day.

Torrential rain woke me up overnight. Mild morning with a bit of a breeze 

Have a good day

That will be Pi..ing Down in Pi..ing Doune or a bit further East then? Like us.
frederic

Warm and a bit showery this morning, think it will be like this all day. It's not enough to stop us getting out and the BBQ is getting fired up later whatever the weather 

Enjoy your trip GH, hope the sunshine holds out. Sorry for those of you with inclement weather, like me 

After 10 days of rain in Hopeman, Bunree and Killin, enough was enough for us, plus we picked up COVID again, son and daughter in law too, thankfully the wee great grand daughter didn't get it.
Happy holidays everyone.

After a grey and muggy start this morning it got brighter and warmer by lunch time. Management decided to try and tame the front garden. This required my attention to hack down, I think the gardening term is prune, the rose that was a bit wild.
There are some plants I don’t get the idea of roses being one of them. I started gently removing the leggy bits but ended up resorting to the tree saw. If the thorns didn’t scratch me they stuck in my T shirt. Apparently when management was a florist one of her jobs was to de thorn roses they sold so the customers didn’t get scratched. 
Now the sun is off the front I will carry on packing for tomorrows trip. Hopefully this calmer weather will hold for our crossing to the Hook of Holland. A bumpy crossing would not be a good start to my trip.

Very pleasant afternoon here, broken sunshine and quite warm. Had our BBQ and ate outside, we know there's rain on the way overnight but it was good to get a few hours of fresh air. Only downside was the wasps 

Rained a fair bit through out the night, brief walk with Tag, get him out later.
Have a nice day. Stay warm and dry.

Overnight rain was heavy enough to keep us awake at times but it's now sunny with a clear sky and pretty warm. Quite breezy too so it feels fresh.

First substantial rain last night for over 3 months. Sunshine and blue sky now.

Same as elsewhere,  heavy rain overnight and earlier,  sunny now but heavy  clouds nearby.

Starting to get van prepped for long weekend in Lake District this Friday. Better pack waterproofs this time
