Didn't know there was a coffee stop there as usually flee through it on my way to Rothbury. Yup, that’s the one. I was heading towards Rothbury via Otterburn on route to the East Coast, but I noticed a sign for “Winter’s Gibbet viewpoint” so went to see what that was (as you do. Or, I do ). Having diverted i continued on to Longhorsley thus bypassing Rothbury. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the one I was thinking of I was thinking long fram next village further up, the pizza place is still down that road though and a chip van is in the opposite corner to that shop couple of evenings a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_M Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 Good evening. Currently chilling with a glass of red wine after a pretty enjoyable trip up to Glasgow -ish. I took a circuitous route through Dumfries and Galloway/ Ayrshire … some cracking roads and scenery. Shame about some heavy traffic in the more populated spots around Ayr. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fozzie Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Good afternoon! This sunny weather has broken the average for the year. Before a couple of weeks ago when it suddenly brightened up, I was saying how cold and wet it has been for the first half of this year. Was out on the bike with the girlfriend on Sunday, took her for a potter around while it was still early. The weather has really affected the work from home staff. You notice a lot of meetings don't happen, or are short, and lots of staff are hard to reach for chunks of the day. You wonder what percentage are in their garden soaking up some sun/beer, but then again I'm here jabbering away on a forum so who am I to complain? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted June 5, 2023 Author Share Posted June 5, 2023 Might be sunny but I don't count 18 C as warm, especially if I am on the bike. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By comparison, anything over 16 C is summer for me! Makes it ironic that my favourite holiday locations are the southern states of America. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mississippi Bullfrog Posted June 6, 2023 Share Posted June 6, 2023 I went for a bimble this morning and it never got above 11 degrees. I'd figured on it warming up so I was pretty cold by the time I got home. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S-Westerly Posted June 6, 2023 Author Share Posted June 6, 2023 Was dragged over the hills today and temperature in the wind was about 12. Good for walking though as I was sweating on the up hill sections. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 7, 2023 Share Posted June 7, 2023 Morning. Rabbit with myxomatosis in the garden this morning. Always a cheery site. Last time I dealt with one was whilst running a corporate volunteer day on a country park. They weren't too cheery to see it go to heaven and all scattered again when I chucked it on the pile of burning bramble to get rid of it. Still, I'm sure it gave them a memorable day.
