The sun is shining in a blue sky down here in Dover, I've just had to water the plants, the wind is drying everything out!

It wasn't too bad earlier but it's rained on and off since 12:30 p.m. It's glorious sunshine now.

I think I'd rather have the rain than move to Essex..........

[ChuckFickens]

^ that's a relief :)

[craft1948]

lol Chuck you can be predictable :-)

[rinkins]

lol craft I've been waiting for that kind of reply for hours :0)

[craft1948]

I'm not anti-Essex, the same applies to Norfolk and Suffolk. One of my bosses was from Suffolk and I could hardly understand a word he said......

[ChuckFickens]

Just assume they are always talking about carrots or tractors and you'll not go far wrong.

It's now about 10 and we've had a no rain day in Derbyshire. So I watered my plants a couple of hours ago and then what did it do..... B***y poured..

[jno]

I've been relaying turf so I could do with a nice heavy downpour to help it all settle and knit. Not a drop so far. It's going to pour at 7am. Allegedly.

In the NW it's rained ever since the hosepipe ban started

[yelenots]

cc1 - I'm in the NW too - the heavens have just opened about an hour ago and the sky went a funny colour thought it was going to thunder!

You lucky thing, yelenots. We've just had a couple of hours' worth here so far today.

When it rains, most of society goes indoors. A kind of peace descends over the neighbourhood and all you're left with is the soothing sound of falling rain. I love nothing more than to sit in my caravan (or my conservatory, if I can't get to the caravan) listening to the rain falling on the roof.

Compare that to sweltering heat, sweating bucketloads, feeling uncomfortably hot, getting tetchy, not being able to get up and do anything and wishing to god the weather would cool a little.

Surely you're not in the UK saxy_jag???
