Morning folks, more than a little surprised to wake up to heavy snow , turned to rain now. Supposed to alternate between snow and rain all day.

Weather must be same throughout the whole country, we have had snow overnight, sleet and now rain with driving wind. So yet another weekend when I won’t get any leaflet dropping to promote my new business done. Typically it was meant to rain heavy several days during the week,and didn’t. Just when I could do with a day off.

Morning all, Brrrrr! We've had torrential rain/sleet/hailstone overnight, It's a bit parky out there too.









I took to my bed yesterday afternoon as if coming down with something, still feel dresdful & our daughter has just informed me her Ford diesel Kuga wont start.
I don't think I'll be even lifting the bonnet on a day like this plus I'm not reet.

I'm sure there is a route with one of the old ones on Drax power station where you shunt the coal hoppers and unload them.
I spent a good few hours on this around Minehead Somerset.

There is an audio add on you can buy for these 47/37's that sound very realistic as the engine starts & powers up etc.
