Simply random stuff

Yep. Been there. The weather seems ideal for distilling alcohol. And raising sheep.

What do you call a sheep tied to a lampost in the north of Scotland?

Just about, it was the hottest & driest summer for years, I finished my exams, got a summer job in a warehouse so didn't see much of it (apart from the Rolling Stones/Lynyrd Skynyrd at the Knebworth Festival). Then went to University in Wales in October where it rained non-stop for months, and the water was cut-off in the student house for about 12hrs each day due to the water shortage!

I was a US foreign student at Edinburgh Uni in '82 (two years after seeing my US family last, as I didn't fly home -- the uni had a thing about ALWAYS being there as a grad student). Had a blast! I remember a day when it turned 72F in the afternoon. The shirtless young local males that day destroyed part of my vision with the brightness. Otherwise, yes, autumn at best, lol!
