They said there was a 90% chance of thunderstorms last night. Still dry as a bone...

Just like our met office here - useless but they got another £1m bonus for ruining our plans

Cold, grey and miserable. The sun hasn't even bothered to pop its face. 9C more like it.

It must be nice to be in a profession where you're paid to be wrong

@roadrunner They have been getting the £1m bonus on top of their salaries every year! Businesses lost money when they predicted bbq weather and businesses bought up bbq meats and all that, only to see raining pouring down and supermarkets lost sales. Or they said it was going to rain and nobody visited stately homes with expensive admission fees. There are a lot of anomalies in the UK. For example, headteachers get paid 2 or 3 times more than the Prime Ministers and the former choose the dumbest of syllabi so that the schools seem to perform well in the league tables and they churn out youngsters who cannot compete with those from other countries. And the exam boards (there are loads of them) make a lot of money and yet they enjoy charity status.

Ooops! I'd better not hijack the thread - but I am fed up with saying grey, cold, chilly, miserable, no rain and my plants are in arrested development! 9C!

They say it will get hotter tomorrow, and rainy days are expected on Saturday and Sunday.

Will be sunny and 26C here today. I had to start shading my GH yesterday.

 

[alp]

@johnny canoe What? Are you serious? 26C? I haven't even got 16C here in the UK. Tomorrow is another miserable day!

Good morning to everyone! Cold but sunny and I reckon if the sun stays up, it will be very warm soon. Going to mow the lawn 7.30am. More sieving and I have to hunt for the seeds I was supposed to sow yesterday..

Well, the dream of rain is over!

 

[Logan]

Alp, shame about the rain. Your part of the country is good for growing things.

If there is rain and warmth. This year we have neither so far.
