Now, that's warm.

Here, it's barely warm enough at night for just two pairs of socks. Image

Chuck another shrimp on the Barbie mate. Still lovely here.

Here, here! I already have a tan of sorts, and that's just from working in the garden for a few days. Bring on more! :haha:

That's a bit of an insult to old women, I doubt they complain about the weather quite as much as I do :moon:

With that said it is unpleasantly hot at the moment, apparently it should be fixed by Friday :love:

Raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock.

It's a tad windy here. Nice temperature though.

Edit - And now I have horizontal rain to go with the horizontal trees :idiot:

Nice and cold here. Sleeping in a hat, three long-sleeved t-shirts and a sweatshirt, two pairs of longjohns, a pair of socks and other underwear, under two duvets and a thick blanket and still need to put the electric blanket on. It's not so much the low temperatures; but the wind has been howling through this leaky edifice in a most unpleasant manner. Still, tonight it seems to have blown off elsewhere so perhaps I might actually get some sleep.

Quit whining, you big Jessie!

At least they've cancelled your hosepipe ban. Seeing as your garden is under two feet of water...

THEY (THAMES F@@***ing Lets Kill Your Local River WATER (another story)) have NOT cancelled our hose pipe ban.

I was chatting to a foreign bird at a bus stop (I often hang around bus stops to do that) and it was absolutely P**@@ing down with rain. I started trying to explain to her about the hose pipe ban but she just looked at me as if I was crazy.

I hate to tell you this, but we are crazy if we're still in a hosepipe ban after a month of incessant rain. If the reservoirs are full, then it should be all systems go. One thing the cynic in me thinks of at a time like this is that the hosepipe ban must be saving the water companies an awful lot of money, specifically from those not on water meters.

At least today has been nice. Things in the garden are beginning to suffer from not having stable weather. I'm not losing yet another batch of basil!

It's not as simple as rain means water in the supply. Groundwater takes a long time to travel down to aquifiers.

Water companies are often thieving bastards but in this case they do have a vaguely plausible excuse. Whether it applies in this case is a different matter :idiot:

I know this. :idiot: I suppose in addition to using the word reservoir, I should have added aquifer, too. :haha:
