    Another Dreicht day rain rain and more rain
    This is the first year in forty years my garden is totally waterlogged, and the first time in that time, that I have hollow tined the lawn, still bogged down
    Forecast for the following week and a half after is rain and more rain :-(

    After the last few days of serious wetness we have Sunshine and high light clouds for a change.
    Seems we are going to have an OK day today.
    News talks about flooded roads at South Cave. Sorry Lolimac, its seems you have it worse than we do. Seemingly a bit of respite is on the way for you.

    Yesterday was light drizzle in the morning and then sunny - but was quite cold all day. I got one of the lawns cut and hope to do another one today.

    The sun has spent the last two hours going in and out so it must be tired by now.

    All deckchairs have been rented out on one month contracts :sad: so you will have to be put on the waitlist :dbgrtmb:

      A grey day, but a better day, slightly warmer, dryer, with very little wind. My pond is full to the brim and probably overflowing into the surrounding soil, but it's looking good. It's just doing spots of rain at the moment but there's more on the way:gaah:

      No rain today and quite a lot of sunny intervals too. Birds are singing their heads off and weeds are growing like there's no tomorrow!!

      After 36 hours of non stop rain, today we have a break. Sunny but chilly. Tomorrow's the same apparently.

      The last three years here April has been dry followed by rain pretty much throughout the summer. This year April has been wet...........here's hoping! :)

        The sun has stopped shining - but it's quite mild out there.

        Another shiny patio start. Gentle soft rain and the lightest of breezes. Much, much warmer. 12c at 7.16am. Light levels are increasing and the grey cloud is turning paler. Maybe,just maybe,if it dyrs , I can sift some compost,add bird sand and vermiculite in preparation for some potting on. Loadsa stuff needs doing. Oh for some sunlight:dancy:
        please:love30:
