Was planning on going for a shot but as I was thinking about where to go it lashed down with rain.

Is this worse than the snow in 2010, at least you could go for a walk in the snow.

The rain, mud, ****e and humidity are conspiring against me. There seems to be plenty birds around still.

All I want for Christmas is a nice frosty morning.

Was watching SKY news last night and they say it's one of the mildest winters on record. Temperatures in the early teens, and middle to high single digits at night.

So instead of frost and snow we get rain and mud.
