    Skived of work early and the heat in the back garden was tropical.

    The black fences are sure absorbing the heat very well!

      Here in N.wales we also had a scorcher. And it hasn't rained where I live for days now! I mentioned in another thread that we didn't have a single day of frost all autumn or winter. It all feels a bit strange to be honest.

      We had thunder and lightning with a tremendous downpour - roads were flooded on the way home.

        Cloudy this morning but brightened this afternoon and it got to a lovely 20 degrees, not quite as warm as yesterday when it reach 22..........fingers crossed the approaching cold snap doesn't produce too bad a frost and isn't too long :)
