Can you send some up here, please? We haven't had a drop for weeks, although it'spromised for tomorrow.

[Sinbad7]

My plots need the rain, I am happy with it ;D

Plus, I bought a new strimmer and hedge cutter today, so am a very happy lady.  Oh nearly forgot the roast beef and yorkshire pudd that I wouldn't have cooked if the sun had been out .

So rain keep raining please, well for tomorrow at least.

I do believe you're thinking of Supertramp.

[caroline7758]

Wish I knew which forecast to believe! Even the BBC one for the wholeof the UK is different from the BBC one for Yorkshire! >:(

Yes,great song.

the rain always seems to be torrential these days,no gentle showers to water the crops.It actually causes damage.

 :-\  I am with you betula... we need some sun!!! Fed up with the wind, cloud and now constant rain!!! Trouble with the rain, once it starts it does not know when to stop!!! We have had our fair share now so its time for the rain to stop here (Warwickshire) and send some to caroline7758!!!

OH NO IT'S NOT RAINING ENOUGH

[aromatic]

 ;D I'll  send you some of ours!!! with the greatest of pleasure!!!  ;D :D

[tonybloke]

we finally got some!! it's been drier than a witches t*t for weeks :D

[posie]

It absolutely threw it down last night this way.  But the wind was far worse, wasn't expecting it given that the BBC said "breezy"!!!!! Took one of plastic greenhouses away!  And kept me awake most of the night.  Apparently its rain now for the next 3 days, which is great for the lottie and my newly planted garden, but lousy for kids because they're on half term!  Hey ho, looking ok for Thursday so can go and see if my newly sown carrot seed has actually germinated this time (3rd time lucky).  If not I'm growing them at home first then planting the seedlings out - I've run out of ideas now!  ::)

[Rhubarb Thrasher]

yes our plastic grenhouse blew over today. The 6 trays of leeks inside were recoverable, but the celeriac they fell onto probably aren't. Solved a problem. I was struggling to find a home for them anyway

We were very glad of the rain here in Enfield but could do without those strong winds.  These Alchemilla cuttings are certainly looking happy.   :)  G x

Taking Alchemillia cuttings is a one-off job - one year in the ground and you will have more seedlings than you can shake a stick at.

Took so long to wipe them out I vowed never to grow it again!
