To be honest, when I worked in Godalming it always felt I was trapped in some sort of alternative universe - a bit like "The Trueman Show".

Farnborough is now experiencing that weird yellow sky. It's the end of the world, I tell ya. Run for the hills.
I used to work in Godalming too, blimey it was 15 years ago.

The sky is all back to normal now here (North Staffs), but for a while it looked like someone had got the white balance set too high on a camera (that's my job!), especially with the daylight balanced bulbs in the office which just made the difference between indoors and out all the more dramatic.

Passed over Devon earlier.

Currently wiping sodding sand off my desk (window was slightly ajar) and all the cars in the car park are now filthy.

That makes sense, only place I could think of for horses was down toward Bromley Common or the back of Petts Wood/Jubilee Park

I'm Beckenahm BR3, give me a wave if you see a blue Exige around smile

Even up in Aberdeen it was unbelievably dark this morning/afternoon. Very brown.

My car & several others are covered in dusty silty stuff too. Just from the rain in the past hour or so.

Phone has an 'auto-white-balance function' which alters the image to what it is pre-programmed to regard as normal colour balance

A man has been killed in Co Louth after a tree fell on his car this afternoon. That's 3 deaths so far, with the worst still to come on the north/north west coast.

Of course it is! The corner of Westmoreland Rd and Masons Hill.

Didn't recognise it myself, used to live on Hawes Rd, but it was over 20 years ago.
