Looks to be easing a bit now but with the F4 to F5 wind and the snow being powdery it's difficult to tell if it's just drifting or fresh stuff falling. Very hard to say how much we have, probably the quivalent of two or three inches but with the drifting depth goes from zero to a couple of feet... -- Cheers Dave. |

I will go along with 'South East' and I have a very sunny 'South facing' Garden. OK? Cowes is in the North. Freshwater is in the West. Bembridge is in the East. OK? Reference (depressing place BTW).

You can go along with what you like old chum, but Lake is on the east coast. http://www.multimap.com/maps/#t=l&map=50.64993,-1.16777|12|4&loc=GB:50.64993:-1.16777:14 For an alleged former sailor you seem to have a poor understanding of the points of the compass.

Although having just looked you up on the map I don't think I would want to live so close to the railway line, and underneath it as well. That embankment must block out the morning sun. |

Lake is approximately half-way between the northern and southern
extremities of the Isle of Wight, and faces almost due east across the sea. That makes it on the east coast. I don't propose to argue the matter further as long experience shows that any discussion with you is pointless. You have admitted that your claim to be on the south coast was wrong, which is a small but important step in the right direction for you. Keep up the good work, and watch out for the trains. |

That makes it on the South East coast. I don't propose to argue the matter further as long experience shows that any discussion with you is pointless when you are correct and have proved us wrong so many times. You have admitted that your claim to be on the south coast was wrong and corrected it to the South East which is a very important step in the right direction for you as we all understsnd that the truth always prevails, as it has this time. Thank you Keep up the good work, and watch out for the trains. I do because they are quite some way away from me and hold no danger. In fact they are one of the contributing factors as to why we like the situation of this house. 10 Minutes from the beach. 3 minutes to the trains and being electric they are soooooooo quiet :-) Very handy for the Post Office, Shops and Supermarket and only a mile or so from either Sandown or Shanklin. So handy for the many friends I have who visit these two towns to pop in and see me when they are on holiday. DO PLEASE pop in should you be in the area.
