Has anyone else had it up to the eyeballs with the weather?! 

If it isn't freezing cold it's soaking wet, I've got so many things I want to get on with on the car but when it's hard work getting out of bed, leaving the house to sort out the car is even harder! 

What do other people do?! I live on a terrace which just makes it worse, just wish I had a garage! 

BRING ON SUMMER!!

The trouble with doing nothing is that you never know when you are finished.

I was only just thinking this today! It really does start getting you down after a while. Although we have a garage, its a bit cramped to work in so always work outside. Would be nice just to be warm, dry and spread everything across the drive without having to weather watch for the next downpour!  :P

I'm the same, I have a double garage, my BM is in 1 side and the Golf in the other. Shelves at the back and there is a central wall between the 2 garages, so working inside as I am just now, is tight.
It's so much better doing the work on the drive in the sun.

Can't wait :-)

Yep sick of it too. I have a garage but it's at the bottom of a steep drive so floods so no work for me on the MK1 still. Just want to get back on it :(

It's not much better down here. I've lent my Cabby to a mate, and it hasn't stopped raining since! maybe an odd day here and then has been OKay, but then we get high winds. My mate in Granada woke up to snow the other week, so we went up the mountains and had a shifty. 2metres deep where the snow plough ha cut through, but then it was 2.5km up!  Be warm soon enough, then we will all be complaining it's too hot!

Agreed. The weather is awful. It's the end of march ffs where the hell is the sun?

It seems to have either rained or snowed constantly since September. When will it end.  :P  :P  :P
