soapdragon Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 Playing Hokey Cokey with the washing today as it keeps clouding over Water but nearly empty so need a bit of sky water for thirsty veggies! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I've been hoping for rain too as all 3 of my water butts are just about empty too. It was 23deg when I went to bed last night, and really humid too. Much cooler this morning, and less muggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Another scorching day here. Weather station was reporting 30deg in the shade yesterday and it felt like it!! Our garden is as dry as a bone. A few showers would be lovely and then more sunshine please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Groovychook Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 Hi mullehunter, waving back Nice to hear of another omleteer down this neck of the woods! Are you up in the north of the county like me or down in the pointy end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mullethunter Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I'm in the middle - pretty urban chicken keeping as far as this part of the world goes - small back garden in Bodmin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 Bright, clear and a cool 10deg this morning, I really thought we'd get rain last night, but it managed to avoid dropping on us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted June 25, 2014 Author Share Posted June 25, 2014 I'm in the middle - pretty urban chicken keeping as far as this part of the world goes - small back garden in Bodmin Big enough for some chooks though, most importantly! Cloudier here this morning and not so hot. The weatherman has said that the rain comes tomorrow... a wet weekend forecast too. Great for the garden but hope it doesn't last for too long Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted June 26, 2014 Author Share Posted June 26, 2014 We have rain! Heavy rain too which is struggling to soak into the parched earth. I'm looking forward to an evening off watering duties and just spent a happy few minutes in the WIR listening to the water buts slowly filling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jennifer Jane Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Cloudy but dry here at the mo, though rain forecast for overnight. Last weekend I forecast it would rain on Friday - we ordered garden furniture and a BBQ, which is being delivered tomorrow - I said to DH that that would be the end of the good weather. Sorry, all my fault! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Cloudy here too, and much cooler. Wouldn't be surprised if it rains later; to be honest, we need it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mullethunter Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 Yes it's covered and their cat box house is open at the front during the day so they can shelter in there too - just a bit of a shock to them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 DRops of rain here yesterday evening, bucketing this morning, but still quite warm. Perversely, I am quite enjoying the odd bit of rain! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Still waiting for Summer to arrive here Cycled to work wearing a fleece jacket, scarf and gloves this morning. Dry but a stiff cold wind blowing. 12c at the moment. Heard on the radio there have been reports of ground frost locally. Will probably light the stove again tonight, third night running this wéek.

The Dogmother Posted June 27, 2014 Share Posted June 27, 2014 Well, despite a couple of heavy showers, we didn't get much rain in the end; I have 3 water butts, lined to overflow into one another. The first one is barely half full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Groovychook Posted June 27, 2014 Author Share Posted June 27, 2014 We've had loads of rain... nearly all the butts are full. There have been patches of sunshine too but when the showers come they're very heavy Having a combination of the two at the moment! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 28, 2014 Share Posted June 28, 2014 Much cooler last night, nice first thing this morning, but it's trying to rain now. We have a locale steam rally nearby this weekend (one of the biggest in the country) and I'm hoping to go tomorrow, weather permitting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
