I know this is off topic....but I keep being asked to sign in. How do I rectify that folks, please?

Not seen that problem myself, might be an idea to chuck it in the forum/website site help and advice thread (have you done the clear cache, cookies/forms etc bit?)

I'm no tech head, but maybe you haven't told your new ipad thingy browser to remember your password? Cloudy and cool!

Evening - Tonight marks my 100th Post

I've only been active on this forum for barely a month, but I feel like I have integrated well this is due to your friendliness, unprecedented on most forums, where trolls are primarily on the headline, this is a special place full of wonderful people.

It is rather complexing to get my head that I've made 100 posts probably a lot of gibberish.. But it has been truely a pleasure to be part of this big community, as we approach the summer my posts may slip down, however I'm a all year person. I believe the people come first and the weather second, cheers you'll all have to contend with me, I might get a little dazzled by the S word but I'll try my best.

Nice day today, though the cloud bubbled up and spread out a lot this afternoon. Still pleasant though. 

ECM and UKMO are starting to edge away from the cooler/unsettled weather. In fact the ECM is quite settled and warm at times for us.

[Jax]

Mild evening and enjoying it, dry and calm still, what is not to like for the time of year

 

Glad to see model output seems to be headed in the direction of mild

Cheers Jax. I cleared cookies etc and it seems to have worked. It's been a lovely day here....sunny and warm in the sun. Hope you all had a good un. My other niece visited us with her 96,000,000 kids. ( honestly, that's what it feels like ) so had a good catch up and planned my Going-Back-To-Naaaarich campaign. I'm now totally kn****red. So night night all and see you tomorrow.

is your theory n/s split region or country?

[Captain Shortwave]

Well the weekend looks nice, that's a start. Hopefully the trend by the ECM continues into tomorrow across all models and we get a warm and sunny Easter.

Goodnight

[john pike]

hi jax

 

country

[Jax]

hi jax

 

country

may be safe then

I am blurgh thanks to the lurg

 

 

so making my way to bed

[lassie23]

It is 11.5c here in north London and cloudy. Much warmer than previous nights thanks to the cloud cover.

[Captain Shortwave]

Morning all

Cloudy but dry here at the moment, hopefully things will improve during the day.

Models really starting to pull away from the cold unsettled theme now. Looks rather warm midweek and no real cool down into the Easter weekend. Though details are still sketchy at the moment.

[HammerJack]

Morning all

Another sunny start to the day here. Off out now to get some picnic bits, then off to the forest with the children for the day.

Have a good one all. Enjoy the sun whatever your doing.

[BarnetBlizzard]

Hmm seems to be cloudy over a lot of the south-east this morning according to met office infra red. Although it also shows the clouds starting to break up over the east of the region, hopefully this continues so we can all enjoy a sunny friday.

[snow raven]

Morning all,

 

Hope you are all well, I'm enjoying some time off work this week.  Yesterday Mr Raven also had the day off so we took a drive out to Brighton.  We had never been there before as we tend to go to our old faithful Hastings or Dymchurch when we fancy a trip to the coast.  I must say, we thoroughly enjoyed our day at Brighton and plan on spending a weekend there this summer so we can spend longer there and visit the Pavilion too.

 

Here's a few pictures:

 

 

 

 

Mini-Raven is the one in the peach/pink top.  I wasn't mad enough to go on this ride with her!

 

 

 

 

Sadly the weather today isn't as lovely as it was yesterday, infact it's depressingly cloudy.  Fingers crossed it brightens up later!

 

Happy Friday peeps

Great photos Snow Raven! I'm just down the road in Dartford where the cloud has broken and the sun is shining, so you should hopefully see something a bit more cheerful soon :-)

 

Sorry about the formatting here - looks like I've stolen your post and made it look like my own

Mornin each. Lovely and warm and sunny in The Swich at present. Hope it lasts as I'd like to see more of the park we visited on Wednesday.

Have a fab POETS day folks.

[Steve C]

Morning all.

 

Cloudy here too. Unsurprising as there's a decaying front over us.

 

At least the weekend should be reasonable, although not spectacular.

 

Have a good POETS day everyone!

[Snowangel-MK]

Morning all,

Lovely sunny one here so making the most of it as I'm working this afternoon and evening - no POETS day for me - might be going out for a drink tonight though .....if I can keep awake !

Here is the tree we couldn't identify, in full and glorious bloom. I believe it is a type of Californian Lilac but which strain I have no idea. It's very beautiful though.

Another beautiful warm sunny day in Essex, Spring is really in full bloom now with trees and plants all coming into full leaf and flowers blooming, loving the brilliant yellow rapeseed fields against the blue sky
