I'm doubting we'll see any of that this year. personally I reckon we could be in for a mild & very wet winter.

But let's not talk about the weather!

I'm off camping next weekend (9th-12th), taking the old tin tent for it's maiden outing. Just me & a bag of tools, sorting out teething troubles all weekend, can't wait!
4 Canvas tents (various sizes)
3 Plastic tents (various sizes)
& 1 Tin tent (yes, I'm a turn-coat, but it has a canvas awning)

My other passion;
My 1983 BMW 525e

Yep, and this time next year we'll be millionaires.

I hope your right, I'm not a lover of snow, I get claustrophobic (or is it cabin fever) when it lingers to long. I like a bit Christmas day, but if it could be gone by Midnight boxing day, that would be perfect :D



Still not long until Christmas now, its going pretty quick.

Time for me to fetch the "Lethal Weapon" and "Die Hard" DVD's out, my 2 favorite Christmas movies, and I'm listening out for the original band Aid song, then i really feel like its Christmas.




Nope, never took it out of the box. But, the salesperson said this tent was super easy to set up; even in windy conditions...

I know for a fact it won't snow this winter.

& do you know how I know this???

Because I have purchased 2 pairs of snowsocks for my car (as it's a rear wheel drive, & BMWs never were known for their tractability in the snow).

Oh no, it won't snow now until I sell the car & buy one on which the snowsocks won't fit! :roll:

The weird thing is, I can actually see the logic in what your saying.

Don't you think as you get older the years seem to go by quicker and quicker? or is that just me.

Another month gone and another month closer to next years camping :yes:
