Just looked at the forecast for next week and the south has another week of strong winds and showers,
most of my work is within 2 mile of the coast and my most overdue work is within 1/2 a mile.
I had swine flu the week before the weather turned, then last week I slipped on some wet grass went flying forwards and hurt my knee and wouldn't be surprised if my finger is fractured, how much worse can things get ? Oh of course there is the fact that with a almost 2 week gap in my work I wont have any work due in the run up to Christmas and will probably miss out on my tips  ::) AHHHHHHHHHH

Stan that's a good point cant see me getting much done this week anyway so I suppose I'll still be catching up for a few weeks after, definitely going to be a very poor month though. 

Thanks Stephen I'll have a look at that

Forecast down here recently has been accurate its the wind that's causing the problems at the moment 35mph straight off the sea so working days have been very limited, just hope we don't have a cold winter now.

yes I know Vince just don't remember it being this bad in the 4 years I've been at it, guess I had less work then though. :)

I find you do hit these really low spots from time to time. Think of it as being a motivational exercise.

I'm on the south coast too. My work at the moment faces straight onto the seafront...

Going to give it a go in a while, but don't know how it will work out.

I don't remember having such a continuous spell of bad weather for years either.  :-\

Chucking it in Hampshire.

The rainfall radar looks like it might pass at some time around dinner, but thats not likely to be reliable.
