    Rain, rain, go away - come again some other day ...

    Was just speaking to a friend in Spain - they've had unremitting temperatures of 40 C plus this last few weeks. They're thinking of coming back to the UK.

    After a brief and unseasonal spell of sunshine yesterday :), we have reverted to grey skies, strong winds and RAIN :mad:. I'm applying for a visa and as soon as I get it I'm emigrating to Shinyland.

    Managed to get a little walk in this morning before the heavens opened - peeing it down now.

    The water butts are now half full, I had nearly emptied them a couple of weeks ago - looks like they will see me through the summer for the first time ever!
