    Quite a lot of rain overnight and it's still drizzling here.
    It seems we've got away with it again by comparison to Jenny, but I don't think I will be doing much out there today.

        Raining on and off all night with high winds. Major rain expected all day. High winds now and showers. Hate the high winds in the Fens as you are so open to the elements. Quick recce in the garden and everything looks quite fed up with life. Fennel decapitated :thud:

          Raining heavily here AGAIN, luckily though we're escaping the worst winds, its blustery but nothing more thankfully...

            Nice to know one of us has sunshine :sofa:

            My garden is getting battered by the winds and rain , the lawn in the backgarden has now turned yellow with all the Laburnum flowers :cry3:plus I have had to use rope to attach the trunk to the fence as it is realy getting rocked about :hate-shocked:.

            All the white foxgloves are either snaped in half or on the ground :help:

            Been down to check the bees see if the hives are standing up to the weather and yes all fine and the bees all inside :snooze: I will have to give them a feed on Saturday if it doesnt rain !!

            So glad I hadnt put the baskets out other wise it would of looked like a Church Bell peal in front of my window :thud:

            So up to know April (Rain !!) May (Cold) June (Wind) I wonder what July will have instore for us :runforhills:

                  Hi Ziggy
                  Is that it, :lunapic 130165696578242 5: just a chair blown over or did you have a patch of carrots in that soil and they have been ripped out leaving nothing

                    Must've been some storm to blow that chair over :snork:
                    I'm freezing tonight, it's okay in the sunshine, but other than that, it is still chilly. Can't wait for a bit of warmth in the air, i was hopeful the other day, but not to be...:dunno:
