I see we have reached that time of the year when we grumble more
than usual about the weather . I can remember two occasions
in the past - one in the late seventies - 1st week in june we had
snow at Primrose Valley ,Filey , and another occasion in 1952
at Scampton RAF Station - Lincolnshire I have a photograph taken
in May of that year I am in my welly boots in thick snow ! ! These
are just two occasions that come to mind !

Our daughter was born on 6th May, and when she was younger and had birthday parties, we always managed to get them out in the garden - there were two reasons for this, one that the weather was usually good, and the other that if we had the party on a Saturday, the Saturday nearest her birthday always clashed with cup final day, and it was a forgone conclusion that that would be watched, by Dad, come what may! - Those were the days! As she grew older, and my husband used to get tickets to main games in London, she would accompany him there, as part of a birthday treat. I have only just discovered (50 years on!) that that reason she went along was for the fish and chips afterward.
