As Usual checked the weather reports on a couple of channels and guess what they both say something different - nothing unusual there then is there?

It is predicted Rain, seems it only went away for one Sunday!

Not sure whether to post a cancellation now or wait for the morning to see, what they say for the weather?

Not much help I know - Sorry!!

Well, after checking the weather this morning both TV channels again have different times of when the Rain is arriving?   Between 11-1pm.

Will pop down but only to do some re-mapping, if the rain does arrive we will be leaving, so I will leave it to yourselves if you want to come today?

Would like to say typical British weather, but checking our dates of when we went last year we done great for Sundays!

Well, another dry day for us in Lancashire tomorrow ;D

Aren't we lucky, as seeing the weather reports for tomorrow night and Monday look horrendous :'(

Mapping again tomorrow, won't make the same mistake as last week, missing off a whole row and sitting on mobile phone and breaking glass screen.

Will bring the 'spade'!!  sezzle incase you make it!

3 Sundays in a row, hoping for next week as well, hopefully our luck is changing weather wise, even though Autumn is arriving!


See you tomorrow!!

CANCELLLED  Sunday 30th September  CANCELLED

Cancelling tomorrow as just seen the weather report and it is predicted to rain.  Rather than leave it last minute posting a CANCELLATION gives everyone chance to make other plans.  Fingers crossed for next weekend!!

Gadzooks ... have been off the radar all summer, but was hoping to get back down to some hard labour again tomorrow.  Still, best laid plans & all that!  :o
Away next weekend so keeping everything crossed for 14th October!  :D xxx

Sunday 7th October

Well the weather is predicted to be dry on Sunday but cloudy!! with out breaks of sunshine!!

So, keeping fingers crossed it stays this way for us!

Still doing some re-mapping rather than digging, apart from clearing soil from re-erected stones, ground would be too waterlogged, and last time we were there it doesn't seem to be drying out, but there again it doesn't seem to stop raining :'(
