I was heading out to walk a stretch of the Southern Upland Way this morning, when the rain started. So I shortened my route for the day and stayed local.
First stop was an excellent coffee and a bacon roll in The Spotty Dog cafe in Lauder.

I did get out and do some walking.

I woke during the night to hear the patter of snow on my tent, but as I was warm in my goose down sleeping bag, I went back to sleep.
I woke up again at about 5am, made some coffee and shot this view from my tent, whilst still warm in my sleeping bag.

I had to work this morning on a project for a client, so I went to a nearby hotel, with good coffee, sandwiches and good wifi.
Once done the weather started to change and eventually there was a heavy hail storm. Fortunately I was still in the car, heading for some wood I know where there is some interesting walks.
I got this photo in one of the warm sunny spells between the wind, rain and hail!
Lunch was back in the car – watching the hail.
Once back at the campsite some of the hail showers looked more like snow showers. Not such a bad evening though, dinner in the watching movies on my iPhone.
