the weirdest thing was before the weekend when I was heading to Belfast.. at 11pm on Friday when I went to bed it was -10C here in Brighton, just over 4 hours later when I got up, it was +5C.. an incredible 15C rise in 4 hours in the middle of the night! Never known that kind of shift before. Made my walk to the get the early bus to Gatwick a lot easier as the foot of snow we had, was thawing very quickly. Bloody freezing again though.
