Same here in Northampton but its windy so its a bit cold still. If the wind goes it'll be fairly nice and feel relatively warm even though its still struggling to get into double figures with the temperature!

That'll be me living dangerously then as I'm right on the north-south divide if that's the case

Honestly, it's November here today. It never really seems to get light any more either.

Maybe Hertford's near Shetland these days and no-one told me.

We had a bit of sun here (Reading) on the weekend. Now back to the constant grey/rain so bored of it now.

Got a fair few miles in today,over 60 in fact,(just going around on various errands) top down, sunglasses on all day...

Bit windy I have to admit and that coupled with the weeks of no rain creates plumes of grey dust behind the car...now going to have to wash it again.

I went for a blast round "the triangle" with a few mates to celebrate on Friday to celebrate 6 months of temperatures below 10 degrees
Followed by a jet wash to get all the slat off!
