Re: Weather
Yesterday: forecast of possible heavy showers. Take rain jacket to work. Result: dry all day.
Today: forecast of possible heavy showers. Forget to take rain jacket to work. Result: thunder, lightning and stair rods. Hope it clears by the time I have to walk to the station!
Still, at least the temperature and humidity have improved.

Re: Weather
Cloudy but bright here ... 17 degrees, quite a scorcher compared to recent weeks.
I'm off out to clean the windows. The outdoor jobs have been fairly piling up lately. The grass needs cutting as well, but the lawn is such a swamp right now I'm going to have to leave it at least until the weekend.

I don't envy you; our old house had just under 1/4 acre of lawns, but due to the house being old the stone walls surrounding it were listed so you could only get a push mower to them; took a good 2 hours to do the front and back gardens!

Re: Weather
No such considerations here ... lots of lawn to do but lots of petrol to power the mower also
The windows are the worse job, we have a lot of bats in the walls and they make a bit of a mess of the windows throughout the summer.

Re: Weather
I have blue skies and a balmy 20C. French doors open and listening to the neighbours cutting their grass. Very soothing.

Well it would be if I could move the lump Riley off my knee so that I could get up a make a cup of tea. I haven't the heart to disturb him as the warmth has had all the insects out to-day and being the big fearless hunter has fair worn him out.
Did you know that Bluebottles crunch, no? well they do when our Riley finishes them of after first giving them a nice suck. YUk YUK YUK

Re: Weather
I know i'm bumping an old thread but this summer is turning in to something quite remarkable.
So much sunshine over the past 2 months and looks like there's no end in sight. 28C already up here this morning when most summers we're lucky to get over 20C, it's glorious.
Could do with a day or two of rain though as the grass is starting to go very brown but doesn't seem like that's going to happen for at least a week.

Re: Weather
Yep - an occasional thunderstorm would be good - during the work day so not to spoil the weekend.
