    7.45pm yesterday - stair rods, great flash and bang and the main tripped out. Very nice to have rain, but does it have to come down all at the same time:confused:

    Morning guys and girls.

    Yesterday I got up early and managed to do 2 hours or so down on the allotment before breakfast and I'm so glad I did because by 10.30am it chucked it down so bad it was as bad as the first day of the floods last year and if that wasn't bad enough it lasted nearly all day long, flood warning signs were all over the roads and I thought surely not AGAIN!:eek:

    Today is very nice the sun is shinning and it is really quite lovely outside totally different from yesterday. I hope the sun is shinning on you good people too.;)Hel.xxx.

    Ouch....!!

    It's dark here as well :D.

    We didn't get any of the rain :(. At one stage there were dark clouds all around as far as the eye could see with a blue patch of sky above us. I wanted to take a photo but Mrs shiney had gone off all day with the camera.

    Greetings everyone The sun is shining through the clouds ,sorry was shining through the clouds and now it has gone quiet grey:rolleyes:

    We must have had lots of rain in the night because everywhere is wet and the top of my bottle recycling bin has a pond on the top of it:D

    Not surewhat the forecast is going to be doing today as I have given up watching it on the box because they all tell lies so I like to be surprised:thumb::D

    Good morning all,

    Kandy, if you watched the weather forecast you would still be surprised by the weather each day :D

    FANCY, I hope you are feeling better :thumb:

    It isn't dark here anymore but it STILL hasn't rained :eek: although today has started off overcast.
