Not going far this weekend in the blustery weather.  :(

Think I'll try and get out into the New Forest tomorrow, if there's a weather window.  :)

I'm planning my first mountain bike trip of the year tomorrow. Forecast says +5 degrees and cloudy with chance of rain later in the afternoon. Best I've seen yet!

Good luck with that. :cool:

I think here we've been a bit spoilt over the last couple of weeks with the mild weather.  :Embarrass:

I shall probably go out, if only to check the water levels in some of the forest fords.

I managed to get myself out there and it was a really nice day. The track was quite muddy and it was tough going, but the weather was nice and the role players were out in droves to celebrate Shrovetide so there were knights and maidens and fire camps everywhere.

I was hiking when several in our group noticed that several rocks looked like states. There was only one thing we could do at that point.

I'm embarrassed. I've been making the mistake of associating with you. It won't happen again. :)

I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Been out in the forest this evening, given it's Easter a fair few tourists were about, but as soon as I got off-road, I had the forest trail to myself. 

I need to spend more time exploring, given I've got a national park all but on my doorstep, well 1.5 miles away. BST start on Sunday, so I'll be able to have weekday evenings to myself in the forest or out on the Dorset and Wiltshire downlands.   :bowler:

Just got my mountain bike back from the shop - complete overhaul.  Now to start riding (after it gets above freezing).
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.
