Valkyrie Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Just kidding - actually OH is in charge of the water butts. He seems to revel in it. I'll swear that greenhouse water butt gets more attention than me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Well, I'm going to change into winter wear when I pop back for lunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Well, I spoke to my folks (Hertfordshire) and Phil (Bucks) and they've not had any rain, in fact my mother has her washing out to dry. Monsoon here and heating is now on at work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Helly Welly Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Hasn't stopped raining here either. The dullest day i've seen in ages. The house is stating to resemble a chinese laundry and it's taking forever to get all my washing dry. I don't have a tumble drier so i'm really struggling.

Scramble Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Why does my computer feel the need to lie to me? It's little weather forcast shows that it's sunny I look out of the window,, clouds, grey, clouds, grey... And before you ask, yes, it is set to my post code Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 Chucking it down since early evening. Soggy teatime birds and soggy me putting them to bed. I swear it came down even harder once the birds were in and I was moving the little run over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 The rain cleared over night. Woke to blue skies and sunshine, but a chilly breeze and just 11deg. More clouds now, but not the unremitting grey of before and *whispers* no rain yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Speckled Hen Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's the back end here and I put my heating on for an hour this morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I thought of you this morning DA, when I saw pics of floods in your area in the papers. I might light the stove if this continues Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Nice so far, sunny with a few clouds - let's hope it stays! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It finally stopped raining yesterday at about 5pm. I emptied my rain gauge at midnight the night before & by 3pm in the afternoon, we'd had 45mm of rain!! It's sunny this morning-looking quite hopeful... touch wood!

Egluntyne Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Got soaked to the skin, literally, in a 5 minute sprint from a car park to the shops this morning. Brightening up now, but very cold. If it wasn't July I'd be seriously thinking about putting the heating on. The garden is a series of lakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It has been fine today, cooll and windy but some sunshine at least. We had a torrential shower of hail just as I got back to work from lunch though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickencam Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 We have had a couple of showers and it is quite breezy and cool. Sunny spells and I have got some washing dry today, with more on the line which has been rained on. We lit the fire last night and lovely it was too This week we have had the chimney swept and we are having a trailer load of logs delivered tomorrow, so we are ready for whatever the rest of the summer has to throw at us Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abwsco Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 It's a glorious sunny day here although a bit of a breeze. Put on BBC 2 and you can see what it's like live, just a 5 minute walk from my house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 After some heavy downpours earlier, it's turned out quite nice. There was steam/mist rising from the roads when the sun came out - some quite thick and rose higher than the car!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Glorious from 2.30 onwards. Got the cube and red Eglu fettled. What a day of contrasts, weatherwise! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Yesterday was lovely! Dare I say it... almost summer-like Cloudy, cool & breezy today- don't think it'll be long before the rain comes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chickvic Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Started off glorious this morning, I have hung the washing out but I've got a feeling I'll be running out to fetch it soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted July 31, 2009 Author Share Posted July 31, 2009 Sunny first thing, then clouded over. We now have sunshine in between the cloud gaps and quite breezy too. Pleasant temperature that suits me just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Lovely first thing......I was holding out hopes that I might get the grass cut, and even ventured to hang some washing out. Big Mistake. *tuts* Cold and cloudy now and threatening rain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
