    Shaldon's lovely - my Mum actually lives in the countryside outside Stoke-in-Teignhead, which isn't far from Shaldon. Hope you find a good B & B when you next go - bless your Dad, it'll be lovely for him and his sis to see one another. Happy Saturday Sue

    Good luck with your travelling today. I'll be following you down the 303 tomorrow as I'm off down to Newton Abbot to stay with my Mum for her 86th birthday. Hoping it won't be quite so blustery and wet tomorrow but as we all know, weather is not in our hands. Just hoping there won't be snowdrifts to negotiate when I come back on Wednesday lol! Sue

    So glad to hear your good news, Tom and I'd like to wish you and your son and daughter very much happiness for the future. I always notice your posts because we used to live in Anerley before we came down here to deepest Kent - have got a soft spot for it (Anerley) which might seem a bit peculiar but we had some good times there.

    Snow is teasing us here again (between Sittingbourne and Faversham) as it has done all winter through, and I've told it I'm not going to play this time!!! I am refusing to get excited about the possibility of even half a centimetre, and although there have been scattered flakelets fluttering around outside since around 7.15 this morning, I am pretending not to notice in the hope that they will up their game and work harder and produce more and more flakes Doesn't seem to be working, though, because there is no sign of anything white outside except my lovely snowdrops. But I am not going to curse the snow, or the weather in general or become despondent because I am not playing the snow-game anymore (who am I kidding?) Sue x

    Wishing you all the best for tomorrow, John P. I know I do not know you, but, like so many in here, we all care when someone is hurting and going through hard times. This is a poem I love - you may like it or you may think it's schmalzy, but it's sent with every good wish for strength and comfort.for you and your family. Here's the poem, don't know who wrote it: Do not stand at my grave and weep I am not there, I do not sleep I am a 1,000 winds that blow I am the diamond glints on snow I am the sun on ripened grain I am the gentle autumn rain When you awaken in the morning's hush I am the swift uplifting rush Of quiet birds in circled light I am the soft star that shines at night Do not stand at my grave and cry I am not there; I did not die.

    Had a very light dusting last night - hang on, I'll just go and count the flakes, won't take me a minute. It all seems to be going north-east - but maybe a little something for us in kent tomorrow? Who can tell? Happy Saturday, Sue x

    It's been flurrying here - between Sittingbourne and Faversham for about two hours. Dandruff mostly, with the occasional thicker, denser snowflakes to raise hopes and expectations! Nothing's settling though, and I'm just wondering whether the 'flakes' I'm watching now are recycled from earlier, after being blown around and back up they are now coming down again! Just looked up 'Flurry' in the online dictionary: FLURRY - noun. 1. commotion, stir, bustle, flutter, to-do, excitement, hurry, fuss, disturbance, flap, whirl, furore, ferment, agitation, fluster, ado, tumult There was a flurry of excitement. 2. burst, spell, bout, outbreak, spurt a flurry of diplomatic activity 3. gust, shower, gale, swirl, squall, storm A flurry of snowflakes was scudding by the window. It struck me that this could be a pretty accurate description of the emotions experienced by us all during this past winter as we watch, wait, hope, jump up and down, weep, wail and stamp our feet at the vicissitudes of snow and weather. Happy weekend to everyone! Sue x

    Been in garden weeding and cutting and pottering, sun on back, birds chirruping a very definite spring, mating-type song, a bee buzzing in the winter honeysuckle, skies blue, all's well with the world - hard to believe temps will be sinking to zero and below in a day or two. Hope that bee will be okay!

    Please forgive my ignorance, but what exactly is a 528 Dam, and what does it indicate? Thanks, Sue x

    I'm new too, though been a member for a while, and I think the loving, compassionate spirit in here is uplifting and wonderful. As someone said, the Circle of Life has truly been manifest in the last few days, and the warm caring of so many people is just lovely. Even if we were in the middle of the snowiest, bitterest, freeze-up ever (I wish!) I think everyone in the Netweather Forum would be warm as toast with all the love and kindness. There, had to say that 'cos it's true. Love, Sue x

    Although your heart is breaking at the moment, there will be a time when you will be so glad that you - and the one you love - were with your Dad when he passed on. And be assured, he will have known you were there with him.If you spoke to him, he would have heard what you said. You were a true and loving son for him when he most needed it. Be proud of yourself. Love, Sue x

    It feels like lovely spring is coming...............oh, but is there snow in the offing? Too early to say, I know - but it would be good................

    Although i have been a member for several years this is the first time I have ever written anything - I just wanted to wish you strength and courage and comfort, John. I read your posts, always knowing that what you say will be sound. So thank you and will look forward to future posts when you are ready. And thanks everyone for all your knowledge and enthusiasm and cheerfulness. Sue xx
