Actually the more I think about it, Autumn 2006 wasn't much better and I
can see Spring going the same way. So this leads me to believe that out
Summers will be too bloody hot and stifling the rest of the year will be
mild and manky.

Great, that cheers me up no end.

Could be that we end up with very little variation between summer and
winter; ie, Winter = Mild and Wet, Summer = Cool and Wet.

I can still see the need for a hosepipe ban though.

On the upside, I'd normally have got through a tank of oil and a couple
of shed loads of logs by now. We still have a couple of weeks of oil
left from last summers delivery, and still only 2/3rds of the way
through the second log load.

Ditto with the logs...

It had it's moments though.

Jan 18th - Probably the severest gale I have experienced sinch the
Burns Night storm.

Feb 7th - Record low temp of -7.6C.

Snow-wise it has been pathetic though.

Least snowy winter here since I came here in April 2002.
Very wet though and mild. More windy than normal but not excessive.

In contrast, here (Cranleigh, SW Surrey) - with two decent falls of 2-3
inches - it has been the snowiest since (IIRC) 2002-3.

Here too there have been a few days with a decent covering of snow on
the ground, but especially on 8 Feb when 15 cm was lying at midday,
the most since Dec 1990, while
the minimum of -8.6 C on the morning of the preceeding day was the
lowest in any month since Dec 2000 and the lowest in Feb since 1991.

Best moments for me were February 8th/9th, with 6cms falling on the 8th
and another 12cms on the 9th which was the best snowfall since 19th
November 1996.
Apart from that it was as the man said, ****E!
