I dont listen to your predictions Ron, I'm still waiting for the cuckoo!!!

I remember 1976 very well! It was the year we moved house, the lawns were brown and if you weren't careful you would have fallen down the cracks that were in them!  I distinctly remember when the drought ended as well...14th July, we moved on the 13th and then the heavens broke!!

No I'm not sure Sue lol its a long time ago now and i DO have a few elderly moments, but i'm ALMOST sure, I can remember when we moved ourselves that it was so hot we had to have a break after 5 mins and then afterwards the heavens opened! I dont remember it being September though, but then again maybe you're right lol

I hope the weather gets better for taking pictures and no doubt you enjoy days when all roads do seem to lead somewhere nice as much as I do

Denzil, I love camping. We have a trailer tent that sleeps 6 and will be using it a lot more now that the wife has retired. But last year, while the wife was at work, I phoned her up and told her that I took the 4 man tent and drove up to Cromer. I came back a week later and she hadnt even known that I had gone. Except at meal times. I do all the cooking, and she wondered why the dinner wasnt on the table. He he he.

The trailer tent is very big Denzil. But we have a 2 man tent, too small. A 4 man tent just about big enough for 1 with all your gear and a nine man tent that we have never used. Even the wife likes roughing it in a small tent though. I think I have a few other tents in the shed as well.

Anyone want to come camping?
