Ok, so nobody knows where I work, what I do, I know that, but if I was to say through that occupation I maybe sometimes, in exceptional circumstances, when it may affect my work, etc, be party to advance warnings of exceptional weather and impact of such. Just a wee nerve settler for ye all.

 

I’ve got it...Avon representative? Advance warnings incase you slip or fall and are unable to deliver orders? Just a wee guess mate.

Nailed it. In all seriousness, those who are anxiously waiting on an order of Black Musk over next few weeks are goosed.

No sign of LS. I'm guessing he's sustained a back injury.

[howham]

Getting a bit heavier!  Considering this a bonus before midweek main course.

Maybe he succumbed to a warm front or a toppler...

I'm just wondering what line of work you're in... Loss adjuster? HMRC? Telesales supervisor?

Nothing as exciting.....project manager.... Just waiting on a couple of new buildings opened recently reporting heating failures to spoil my joy of the cold 

[howham]

Looking at the radar it almost looks like a streamer set up here.

[edo]

Wow what a start.... Streamer already for you

This threads been brilliant.....chuckling away catching up on all the posts

LS thought he produced but clearly a sting and he has been relieved of his phone and laptop

Or maybe picked up by the met to be a special advisor 

[Benvironment]

Just the most joyously uplifting walk today with Helensburgh Ramblers.......for a huge dose of Vitamin D before the week's excitement begins. The hills looked so stunning first thing even the deer couldn't help staring ;-) Man, we don't half live in a beautiful country

@Benvironment that deer pic should be on a calendar mate ? 

Beautiful wall to wall blue skies for Stac Pollaidh too, the extreme west coast terrain looked tropical compared to the pasted hills and frozen lochs just a wee bit in-land. Great to have such conditions with no ticks or midges around. The week ahead looks awesome, expecting many surprises and our eastern contingent looks like getting utterly buried, have fun ?

A dusting of snow here already this morning, so it starts.... 

[Gogoslo]

No snow at all in Aberdeen.... yet.  Definite feel of calm before storm though.
