    Yup @Sheal you have confirmed that we do just sometimes get glorious weather up here in Scotland. I have actually got slightly burnt on my arms as they hadn't seen the light of day since about September of last year. Happy days and I think we are meant to have another cracking day tomorrow

        Be careful with the sunburn @silu, the sun is quite harsh still being so low. It's lovely to actually see it where I'm living at the moment. From late September until a week ago we didn't see the sun at all as it's blocked out by 60ft pine trees.

        Yes, tomorrow looks good too but I don't think I'll see much of the sun, housework then a three hour Skype with my son - but that's a bonus. :)

          Slightly hazy skies all day, but the Sun was really nice and warm with a top temperature of 63f. There was a breeze from the North but it didn't really have any bite to it. The temperature at the moment is 43f but with the clear skies that we have at the moment I'm guessing it will drop to around freezing by midnight. The pressure reading is, at present,1009hpa.:coffee::snorky:

              We've had frosts for the last two nights but very sunny during the day. Ideal gardening weather :dbgrtmb:. There's been a fairly strong cold wind so I've needed to wear a jacket when working in the shade.

              Bright sunshine again now. 42F

                The snow has all gone thanks to a south wind and sunshine. The broad beans are a bit bent but they'll soon recover. Let's hope that's the last of the snow for this spring!

                  It feels a lot warmer here today as the wind has dropped. It has just topped 60F and very sunny.

                  Yesterday was the sunniest day this year and produced 21.6 kWh for us. :thumbsup:

                    Definitely better than yesterday as the wind has dropped and doesn't have quite such a cold feel.
                    Even so it only reached 14C

                      24C with beautiful blue sky and sun :hapfeet:but a cool east wind. The ground's well watered and everything looks fresh and vibrant. What a lovely season!

                            I did today what I did yesterday the only difference being, yesterday I sowed veggie seeds, today it's flower seeds. Some quite a few years passed their 'use by' date so we'll see.

                            The propagation table only has room for one or two more small black/brown supermarket mushroom boxes. Bottom heat 65 - 70 F. Cheers, Tony.
