        9 degrees and bit of sunshine though the white fluffy clouds, quite a stiff breeze from the west, grass needs cutting again.

            11 degrees, sunny spells and blowing a holey. Petals from the fruit trees like confetti all over the garden. Hope the pollinators got there first.

                Today has been a real mixed bag! I’ve just driven for about 20 mins and had hail, full wipers on, then sunglasses on and also gusts of wind kicking up debris!

                    We're having a heat wave. It is up to 58f 13c which is perfect or checking the irrigation lines and doing any necessary repairs.

                    The guessers say it will be back down to freezing by week's end. :rolleyespink:

                      Got to 30c :phew: but there was a nice breeze and Ben the Gardener made it with several iced water stops followed by a relax in the shade with several beers.

                        The wind over the last few days has dropped to a breeze today. Mostly sunny with an occasional light shower. 8C/46F

                            If I put the washing out here, it would disappear!!!!! It's blowing a gale out there. I can hear a loose board bumping in the loft. Daen thing is keeping me awake!!

                            It is dry though. No sunshine yet.

                              Yesterday was gales, monsoon, hail and sunshine. So not too much different from a normal UK summer :roflol:

                              It is now just very windy and very sunny but they forecast rain. We shall wait and see.
