I remember it snowing in Southampton, when I was working there. There was chaos on the roads, over 1" of slush :lol:

I come from Southampton and can only remember snow twice.


This was winter 82/83. I was riding into the Bargate daily on a Yamaha Trail bike, which proved very useful for getting round all the parked cars on the Itchen Bridge :D
It did not however, fit between 2 stationary Soton City buses :lol:

It seems to vary with the terrain. This is some building work being done at the Cabane de Moiry this summer. Somehow they got diggers, dumper trucks and the like up their to build an extension onto the Cabane which overlooks the glacier.



The plant must have been dropped by air, since the path up to the Cabane is a little er.....



Yes, that is the path, you can tell because there is a yellow stripe on one of the rocks :lol:

Well at least no sharks, just dreaded weaver fish. Had a weaver fish sting about 10 years ago, the worst pain I have ever been in, had neuro-toxic poisoning,i never venture in the water without wet suit boots now.


Ow nasty :shock: I'm sure most of us don't equate the UK seaside with poisonous fish.
