The Cold Winter


Living in Essex in the south of England, one expects to get warmer weather than the north of Scotland. So why is it that for the last four weeks or so, when we see the temperatures on the weather map, Stornoway is consistently warmer than us?


In case you don't know, Stornoway is on the Isle of Lewis in the Outer Hebrides. So what's happening to our weather? Should we book our summer holidays for the Shetlands in order to get some sun? These are difficult problems and I need to find some solutions!

  1. Yeah go on Eric, have a lovely holiday in Scotland or the North East of England I can fully recommend it. You will be sped away at 125mph for your Journey on a proper railway, and will enjoy all the delights of travelling via the East Coast main line.You can enjoy the delights of freshly cooked hagis, sample some Scottish music with the bagpipes or see some highland games. Who knows you could even return to Laindon in your very own Baldwin Tartan Kilt and preach your next sermon in it. och aye the new.
    Ginge :)
