Surprise snowstorm in Sheffield city centre. Big flakes, coming down thick and fast. I hope it lasts because I thrive on the chaos. Also, thrive on being sent home early.
Yep. Messing around in a group. Sprinted, popped a chain link, which pulled the mech into the spokes, destroyed mech, four spokes ripped out, rim ruined and hub destroyed. Expensive day and a long walk home..
Seems they’ve cast off the permacloud from the top of Fendrith Hill. Must have gone into dock for maintenance, or someone’s photoshopped the webcam images.
It is with a heavy heart I report that as of today the Sphinx has gone *again*. What 100 years ago was considered to be a permanent feature of our hills has vanished for the 10th time. Five of these have been since 2017.
Winter tyres went on the van on Friday, Giulia’s go on tomorrow. Dusting of Snow in Weardale this morning and talk of skiing being possible by the weekend.
First sleet of the year here today, snow forecast for end of the week. Snow at the end of November isn’t that unusual for us (East Lancs up in the Pennines).
We’ve had heavy falls the last few previous days, today temperature hasn’t reached 0c. Lovely cold weather, a big difference to the 15c we had the other week. Looks like Cumbria is getting hit hard the next 24 hours.
