GeordieSaint Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Yad Moss ski area about 3 miles from my house being pounded by the wind... there will be some rather large snowdrifts on the Middleton-Alston road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaun mc Posted March 18, 2018 Share Posted March 18, 2018 Coldest ever recorded by the Fell Top Assessors, just beating Saturday Don't think they were able to get up there when the original Beast from the East came by as it was too dangerous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We don't have a thread for when it rains as 1. it would be about 3 million pages long 2.

Phil Posted March 19, 2018 Share Posted March 19, 2018 Heard a bloke in the shop earlier. “ this beast from the east thing is like an angry woman coming back in the room and shouting “and another thing”.

tonyXIII Posted March 22, 2018 Share Posted March 22, 2018 Not snow, but weather related. The view from my balcony right now. The air is full of sand from the Sahara. The tree centre-top is 200m away and the houses beyond it are 400m away. At least it's warm at 27 or 28 celcius. 2 Rethymno Rugby League Appreciation Society Founder (and, so far, only) member.

M j M Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Took a day-long round trip on the Umea-Vaasa ferry between Sweden and Finland the week before last. It was absolutely freezing - the coldest I've ever been (beating Workington vs Leeds in December '94) but we spent an amazing day crunching between the two countries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Generally you use a bear bag (up a tree) or a bear barrel (protective box the bears can't get into). And cook somewhere else. With the best, thats a good bit of PR, though I would say the Bedford team, theres, like, you know, 13 blokes who can get together at the weekend to have a game together, which doesnt point to expansion of the game. Point, yeah go on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
