    Grey,dull and very still this morning. Sky looks heavy and ready to drop. Pink dawn and quite mild at 11C. Barometers still out of the danger zone.

    I can think in metric or Imperial (notice the capital I :heehee:) but speak Imperial unless I think the peasants might not understand :lunapic 130165696578242 5:. Do you think that might stir things up? ;) :snork:

    It's a mild 50.1F and the sun came out to play about 45 minutes ago. The forecast is very windy but we haven't even got a breeze yet.

      It's a mild 14c here, and with a gentle persistant drizzle. So if you can face the wetness, it's great settling-in weather for new plants. A few planted into the bank this morning, and an indoor palm will spend the afternoon outside having a thorough "wash".

        Don't what the temp is here, but it has been mild, quite a bit of sun, nice sitting in the garden with the sun on your race. Hoping to repot some poorly Orchids, and sort some seeds out to bag up.:ktykss:

        I've been in Manchester most of today and it was grey and 'orrible there, but then it always is [I'm not a City man]:heehee:
        Anyway, it was sunny and full of promise when I left in the morning but when I got back home it was grey and raining. The outside temperature at the moment, at 11.30pm, is 50f.:coffee:

        Yesterday was surprisingly mild here at 17.9 degrees and with a light breeze it felt very comfortable. It was also dry for the most part until mid-afternoon, we then had a few showers and just on dusk we had some heavy rain that last for an hour or so. We also had a very heavy shower during the night that woke me up!!

        Nice this morning at the moment, but with a moderate breeze, temperature at 8.9 degrees..

        It's been raining on and off since last Sunday including today. Tomorrow we're promised sunshine here but a chilly 51F max. Back to the digging tomorrow? No chance! The cupboards are bare and I have to shop. :wallbang:
