Early Summer?
« on: April 12, 2010, 22:53:04 PM »
Well here on the west coast of Scotland, we've had 2 glorious days, reaching 19degs. Although it's been glorious, I was amused to see (mostly youngsters)walking about in shortsand skimpy vest tops, guys bare chested,and some not so young men in cropped trousers (yuk)and muscle back vests. .
Worst of all is the sight of all those unkept feet, yellow hard skin and cracked heels. Brits just can't do it eh?
Best laugh is, forecast states there's possibility of more snow later in the week.
Old Scottish saying......Ne'er cast a cloot til May is oot!
:D

old English saying "Ne'er cast a clout til May be out"
old French saying "En avril, ne te découvre pas d'un fil; en mai, fais ce qui te plaît"

You can see from Mikes picture that the May flower is not out and therefore definitely keep your kit on weather.
