My time out is tomorrow, so how was it today ?
Greasy midgy or sunny but still cool ?

Midgy and too warm in the sun. I could have coped with either but not both and sacked it. Somewhere shady and exposed would be your best bet, though its forecast to cloud over later so sun may be not such an issue. Wind in the east so not the norm.

Bit of early clag around, but burnt through it here at bbg. Now getting too warm (t shirt weather). Was a big more murk towards Stainage (and lots of student groups getting going) but clearing. Solid clag west of ladybower.

It's lovely. But could be too warm soon. Midges are starting to circle by western eyes! Not a breath of wind. Shady problems will be mint, but wss is just starting to feel a little greasy.

Westerly forecast, so midges might be an issue at west then. Might give it a miss and try somewhere else later on.

Anyone been out to Burbage or preferably secret garden? Got a pass for first thing tomorrow and wondering if it's worth it?

SG tends to seep a bit - and its rained quite a bit recently... but you never know, and the seepage normally only logs out one or two lines...

Savage garden was in good nick friday night bar a bit of seepage left of the problem that isn't zaff's, but everything else was bo, but hard to say how long todays rain will take to dry and if it'll leave seepage, might be ok. A first thing this morning the whole burbage area was in thick fog.
