I don't think there was any runs due to the weather.
Tonight would be a great one butas is typical, I've got prior commitments

Hopefully will be doing an early morning run this weekend and will give a shout out to see if anyone is available.

Been out in mine this afternoon (dare I say it? - shopping!) think I should have had the sunblock on - face is a bit sore! Weather forecast for this eve / tomorrow isn't good, though.

Same as Steve above ^^, except I wasn't shopping... Oil pump turned up this morning so fitted that and thought I would test it all again for leaks, fingers crossed it is leak free now... wooohooooo.

The problem with the weather at the moment is we can't really even organise anything more than a day away, and even then it is not guaranteed to be right.

ETA.

You wanted a pic last time Steve, here it is.
No prizes for guessing the location however.....

Stannah car park on't Wyre?

Just as well there were no prizes, yes you are correct.

Depending on a fellow locoster turning up to collect some parts, I may be free Sunday if it's still reasonable weather. Maybe an evening run or something?. I will know more nearer the time.

Sunday not an option for me - I'm back at work.

We are going camping to keswick tonight for the weekend

Be sure to camp up on high - ground is absolutely sodden at the moment, bring your lilo or one of them new fangled thermarests
