Nice and warm down here, but I would think you must be suffering up your way. Last year we were soaked an cold when I stopped a Hasely thingy while we were working at Gardeners World.

Certainly crazy weather here today- thunderstorma one minute and warm sunshine the next, fine but quite chilly this evening. Ace, if you're still at Hampton Court, can you hang on to that weather until Monday, please?!

Not bad here. Was raining at 4.30am (had to let the dog out!!) but other than a couple of showers not a bad day at all. Had to water.

It was glorious here in London (but then it always is IMHO :D)  We were sitting by the Thames sipping chilled wine and had to move into the shade it was so hot!   8)

No I am back on the Island, going back wednesday after the rain. ;D  Don't worry it should be alright for your Gala night, and there are plenty of places under cover.

I am still on my waterlogged one.My three raised beds have been wonderful.
I know when I go down tomorrow it will be like a lake.Really looking forward to all my beds being raised.
