                  Sunny and breezy, a lovely fresh 17c but still forecast to go to the low 30s.

                  Yes @AuntyRach it is wonderful having some normal temps and i feel refreshed rather than like a lifeless blob.

                      The wind and rain are out of the way and it's now bright and still a bit breezy. Will need to do a bit of sweeping up and tie up some tall plants.

                      Max 19c and sunny intervals.

                      Tomorrow looks bad with just 16c and showers and lightning all day.

                        Not as bad as the forecast suggested, there's a stiff breeze with a choppy sea.

                          After some overnight rain it looks a bit brighter, cooler at 11 degrees, not too windy, but the sun is trying to peep through.

                            Very sunny now but very windy. Not safe to walk to the end of the garden with branches (only small ones :fingers crossed:, coming off the trees and apples flying everywhere - slight exaggeration :biggrin:

                              All our backyard and the steps up to our garden are covered with birch leaves from the wind /rain last night. Still the suns peeping through that’s what I like . Sweeping brush ready and might have to cut some brambles coming from the no-man’s land next door .

                                We've had about an inch of rain in the past 48 hrs and last night was very windy.
                                Today a bit breezy, but sunny.
