    Just had a memo from SW Water saying we have the second lowest rainfall over the past 6 months and to conserve as much water as poss.
    I think this summer has been hotter even than last summer :SUNsmile:

        A little bit of rain to dampen the dust, we will like some more as we have a lot of dust around the house at the moment (outside :biggrin:)

              Hi,

              It's been dry here for three days but Blackie got me again tonight. I'd agreed to look after neighbours two cats whilst the neighbours are on holiday abroad for three weeks; I'd arranged to pop on tonight at 6:30 to collect keys and sort the feeding and security out; 6:25 I looked out of our kitchen window to see Blackie putting down a heavy shower; this continued until I arrived back home then Blackie quit laughing at me; I was soaking wet AGAIN and my parka and cap are still drying; I hate Blackie with a passion and those of you who are desperate for water can have Blackie because I'm sick of these soakings which always occur bang on split second timing. I must have been a mass murderer or not paid my TV licence in a previous life to suffer Blackie the way I do.

              Kind regards, Colin.

                Summer has lapsed here today. A mostly grey sky with a few light showers and a chilly breeze dropping the temperature to 16C/61F.

                          Hi,

                          Many thanks Logan; I don't mind the odd soaking but I do mind Blackie adopting me without me having a say in it at all. :mute:

                          Dust seldom troubles me outside strongylodon but can be a problem on the rare occasion I get into the workshop. :biggrin:

                          It's winter that lapses here Sheal when we have a couple of days decent weather which I think is jokingly called our summer; it's great here though for making films like "Wuthering Heights".

                          Kind regards, Colin.

                            Had a bit of drizzle earlier but a bit fresher, which is nicer for me.

                                Any chance of keeping it wiseowl; I'll be wandering along the street tonight to feed neighbours cats and hope Blackie doesn't catch me again the way he caught me last night? :mad::mute:

                                Kind regards, Colin.
