Dazza

I agree with what John and John say here. Home weather stations are really there for showing current conditions and for recording data on an ongoing basis and for future reference. The forum is a great place to pick up ideas of future weather conditions from the Pro's and Am's and you could always sign up to NW Extra as well for a small sum and you'll find much more data here than a home weather station could ever collect (apart from Oon's of course).

We did get one, I'll have to see if I can get it off Mrs Dazza once she has finished showing everyone and i'll post it here.

Thank you all very much, maybe DazzaLoo would be very fitting, but I think Katie holds the trademark SR so I will have to be nice to her, and Lady P I hadn't thought about the colour scheming of outfits, good point, although I wouldn't want the baby growing up with a complex if my shirts are anything to go by!

Awwww stop it, you'll have me at it too Thanks Katie

Well they do say that a new house brings new beginnings and as it has been a while since I made my last blog entry, so I felt that now was a time as good as any to spread some new news. Mrs Dazza and I visited the hospital this morning, for what is our 12 week scan....... Yep, you guessed it, at long last there is a baby Dazza on the way We have been through the usual, who do we tell, when do we tell them, yada yada, but we feel that now the 12 week period is past that we can be a little more open about who we tell, so that's a potential 7,288 people in one go then! Mrs Dazza is completely milking the situation though, and everyone seems to be backing her up, no more doing this, no more doing that, and that's just my input. The morning sickness has now subsided and i'm feeling a lot better thank you, I feel sorry for anyone else expecting though, there isn't a single Ginger Nut Biscuit left in NI, Mrs Dazza has had the lot! Today was actually our 5th scan, we decided to go private, just to be on the safe side. At the first scan we thought we saw something , at the second scan we were told that it was a case of 70/30 for pregnancy (that was a real downer of a moment), the 3rd scan was because Mrs Dazza was in some pain and we didn't want to take any chances, we saw a different consultant (as our was on hols) and he turn't the sound on, on the scanning thingy, and...... there was little heartbeat :lol: . Mrs Dazza started crying and I was very close to tears, what a life changing moment that was!. The 4th was at the request of our consultant just so she could verify the heartbeat for herself, and the 5th was today, again just making sure all was well and that progress was being made. So, fingers crossed that all goes well from here onwards and that Baby D grows to be a strong healthy baby, only time will tell. Thanks for listening...

Some super Panoramic photo's there Neil. Thanks.

From one extreme to the other! Thanks for sharing Jurgen.

Surprisingly good pictures for an Olympus compact considering you were unable to use it properly. Now then, was it the camera or the user that was at fault? Good pictures nevertheless.

Crikey, that would have been as scarey as hell for those it hit, It looks like the car in the top right hand corner took evasive action just in time to avoid becoming another casualty.

and Dazza from NW :lol:
