I can't see the pic on my work computer, but can on my phone. Odd.


I don't really know that area, but know the areas south-east of Exeter fairly well.


 


PS - have you noticed that one of the 'Twiscombe' names on that sign's post is spelt wrong?

Could be your IT people have blocked imgbox or blocked downloaded .jpg's in general - My old Company did that for .jpg's and .exe's amongst others

Still, it’s always nice to get a firsthand account of increasingly distant weather events.



Yer Ma's the same age as me LL and I remember it- not actually a memory of it being that date, but of scraping snow of a wall in Vincent Ave and Mum doing tomato soup and jacket potatoes. Funny what you remember.
