When Will This Awful Weather Change?

Pretty well every time I attempt to get out for a decent walk it rains or snows. Funnily enough enough, every second Monday since the new year has been sunny, including one morning when we walked in deep snow to the south of Corby. It was magical but a really cold -5 degrees C.

Don't get me wrong, I am not just a fair weather waker, though I do certainly prefer it when it's dry. Believe me, I've experienced it when it has been torrential and it's not comfortable. When with my three waking friends John Baldwin, John Dixon and Joe Grun we waked the Coast to Coast in 2007 it rained on six of the days three of them continuously. We were all soaked in spite of good gear.

Still, spring is around the corner so I'll be out more especially as most of the Festival organisation is completed.
