Just as well you didn't have wee Helen with you, Mark... she's aa nervous flyer at the best of times, believes herself to have a travel jinx... she sings hymns on takeoff and landing!

[annew]

That must be encouraging!

[Maggi Young]

That must be encouraging!

I haven't experienced it myself, Anne.... but Ian says it's awful 

[annew]

What, the effect on morale or the singing?

Yes ! Maggi

Here's how windy an Inverness beach was yesterday. It was like the sand was alive like an evil beast from a science fiction programme. The first two shots were looking up wind. The third shot showed the sand blowing away from us and disappearing into the sea

[Anthony Darby]

Cool

[mark smyth]

and look at how the dry sand collected around stones and pebbles. This is how dune systems start

Marks pics were taken on the Back Shore at Findhorn on a windy Wednesday morning.

[mark smyth]

Yes, I couldnt remember where we were

[annew]

It's Wednesday so it must be Scotland...

[Andrew]

First frost of the season here this morning, followed by a nice sunny day.

[David Nicholson]

Nice and sunny here too. No frost but cold.

[mark smyth]

only -1 here this morning but very chilly for some reason. This morning on the way to work I saw a guy on a scooter with only a football shirt and knee length workout kind of shorts

[Anthony Darby]

-3^oC in Dunblane this morning. Fortunately I managed to cram all my tender plants into the greenhouse yesterday. [Big oops - forgot my wife's peglaroniums ]

[Stephenb]

Also our first proper frost this morning at about -3C on this side of the Little Pond near Trondheim in Norway (the first frost gets later and later), so we're obviously in the same weather system...
