Never seen such a bad weather ...we had 3°C this morning + strong winds + rain most of the time ! Having right now a ray of sun but indeed ever soooooo depressing. It will be sunny on Sunday (So i'll have my sunday walk with all the trekkers of my club)and then rain again most of the week ! Weather is making the headlines on all papers. Everyone sound sad, depressed,and tired.

I don't know why God is so sad ...I just hope HE will quickly stop crying...it's contagious and honestly I'm fed up to get wet with all his tears!!!

Well here in Cornwall it's cold, wet and very windy, however I don't care as I have the heating on a cup of tea and the internet, so it can do whatever it likes outside in my world the sky is blue it's warm and I can go anywhere I like................. Perfect

Frankie, better get your act together, we're hitting Calais two weeks today! It's sunny here in Stranraer but only 13C at present.

We really are looking forward to France regardless of the weather, heading toward Carcassone this year.

Glad you enjoyed your Scottish trip.

A piece out of a french paper:Doh:

Tornado, snow and stormy weather

AFTER a holiday weekend of snow, torrents of rain, storm winds and even a water-spout, forecasters say that the moche filthy weather over most of France will continue until the end of the month. :Eeek:

Now near Tours, on our way home. Hoorrrraaaayyyyyyyyy!!:ROFLMAO:

Been back in S.Brittany near La Baule for two weeks and while it has been colder than normal for this time of year we have not had much rain. Heavy rain one night and showers on about 4 days, mostly cloudy with occasional sunny spells, managed to use the BBQ 3 times and mown the grass, trimmed the hedges etc.

Cloudy and windy today with a short shower so far temp 17.

Hi Bill!

If you wish/need to stop at my place send me a PM i'll give you my address and phone. Toulouse is on your way to Carcassonne, and I'm not far from the 4 lanes(périphérique).
Even if i'm only free after 6.30 at the moment on working days , it'll be my pleasure to have a drink (or 2 or 3 as would Mo say:winky:) with you!

weather in the south of France

we were in Carcassonne yesterday - sun, rain, hailstones and wind - did I forget cold?

We've moved down to near Dizier and yes, the sun is mostly shining but the wind is blowing and it's far from warm although people are sitting outside their vans in short sleeves. Soooo disappointing. We're in our second week now and it's all been bad. We have about 2 1/2 more weeks - surely it must change soon? I hear Russia has 28C.

We're also worried we'll run out of gas as we've had the gas heater on most mornings which we didn't expect to have to do. On free electric at the moment so will take every advantage - electric kettle, little oven and fan heater. Not many Funsters around - where are you all?

We're not far from Agde at the moment (Dizier). Is Agde worth a visit. Good aires? Haven't planned our next move yet but have Millau in mind. Any advice anyone?

Poured as I arrived on ACSI site for night so got soaked connecting electric and now sun has come out. No it's gone again!

We're near Diziers on the Med and cold here too although we've seen a lot of sun today for a change. Chilly strong wind. Not what we were expecting, Carcasonne yesterday was sun/rain/hail and wind - AND COLD
