Overall we, the east, have had pretty good weather the last 6 weeks or so. Very mild, minimum rain and reasonable amounts of sunshine. Even the normally cold east coast breeze has been at a minimum, in fact almost nil TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or- A fast run thru Ferg Park , take in some drug deals, then try to stay alive playing the OF or Ton, and get pished on, from above and across Tricky choice ??????
