• Hi all and welcome to TheWoodHaven2 brought into the 21st Century, kicking and screaming! We all have Alasdair to thank for the vast bulk of the heavy lifting to get us here, no more so than me because he's taken away a huge burden of responsibility from my shoulders and brought us to this new shiny home, with all your previous content (hopefully) still intact! Please peruse and feed back. There is still plenty to do, like changing the colour scheme, adding the banner graphic, tweaking the odd setting here and there so I have added a new thread in the 'Technical Issues, Bugs and Feature Requests' forum for you to add any issues you find, any missing settings or just anything you'd like to see added/removed from the feature set that Xenforo offers. We will get to everything over the coming weeks so please be patient, but add anything at all to the thread I mention above and we promise to get to them over the next few days/weeks/months. In the meantime, please enjoy!

Just wondering how you guys down South were doing ?

Mark ?

Nothing up here as yet, luckily.
 
Had wall to wall sunshine in mid Devon for two days. Got another two long term temporary doors made. Hope to hang them today.
 
Lovely sunny day so far in Hampshire but we had a frost last night.
Might have a snow flurry tomorrow??

Yesterday had a flock of very striking Redwings eating the berries followed by a group of Long Tailed T*ts at my feeders.

I always say, there's nothing like having a group of LTTs at yer feeders! :D

I also had a rat but he/she is no more!
The T*t didn’t get through the language trap [emoji3]

They are back again today but nearly stripped the tree bare:

Taken with my iPhone at 10x telephoto so not the best picture.

Not bad. You must have a steady hand.
 
I had to go to a funeral yesterday and on the way to the cemetery it started to hail, which, thankfully, stopped by the time we got there. But it was absolutely FREEZING cold, not helped by an icy wind. A newly opened woodland burial ground overlooking Poole Harbour - a beautiful spot with the graves on a gentle slope overlooking the harbour, but very open (no trees planted yet) and it felt like the Russian steppes there yesterday. The weather certainly added some gravitas to an already sombre occasion.
 
Snowed overnight last night Roger, about what Doug showed, and has been steadily the same all day but warmed up a little so not settling. Apparently it's due to dump on us tomorrow so let's see...

Cheers
Mark

Not a good sign its just started snowing & it’s settled straight away. The yard was clear when I got up & there’s now twice the amount since I took the photo with the flakes getting bigger :? :?

Hopefully the forecasters are wrong with the predictions of 9” of snow but looking at the sky doesn’t fill me with confidence :eusa-think:
 
I used the window frame for support Malc and I use Tapatalk for accessing the forum and uploading photos Richard - so very easy.
Forecast turned correctly so far, strong winds and rain - we’ve already had one brief power cut and Amazon have mailed to say my delivery is delayed due to bad weather!

Been snowing here in west oxfordshire since 6am, now settling about 6-8inches deep. Snowmen in progress.

Maxed out at 26c today.

Storm building up towards South West, looks promising.
We have had about 65mm this month.

Just another shorts only and barefoot day ............. 8-)
 
Well thankfully as I’m starting my last job before the holidays tomorrow the forecast didn’t materialise :eusa-dance:
After an initial flurry early on we’ve had very little snow & what we have had has melted, though talking to friends future south they seem to have had quite a lot, presumably the weather front didn’t make it as far north before dumping its snow.

Hope everyone wallowing in several inches of snow are safe & sound :eusa-pray:
 
A positively balmy 4 degrees this morning. Time to get the sunscreen out :lol:

At least the poor lad who works for my builder won't be outside with a blowlamp trying to melt the sand pile.

Hi Roger

Is that me you are referring to in Worcestershire? Hope so as it made me finally register on here :) You missed plenty of snow on Sunday. Worcestershire virtually closed down - couldn't get to the demo I was suppose to be doing at the West Midlands club. Then the ice for Monday/Tuesday and now rain and sun. You don't know what you're missing :D
 
Hi Mark

And a warm welcome from me. Yes, I was indeed thinking about you. No snow up here and blue sky for a couple of days. Not for long.
