Title: Thank you Carol!
Post by: Mrs Ava on June 15, 2005, 11:33:48
It's raining, it's pouring, EJ is cheering!

Even with a line full of washing getting steadily wetter, I am smiling from ear to ear!  Not only do I now not have to mow the lawn, but my spuds will be swelling, my seeds will be germinating, and my hayfever will settle down!

Why thanks to Carol, well, when we chatted in the chat room last night, she promised she would send the rain down to Essex, and what do you know, she did it!  ;D

We have gone back a season.  Cold and grey skies again here in the North East with lots of scatterings of rain. busy_lizzie

Sun is out again now :D

looks like it rained a bit last night and the majority of the morning.
Should be enough to quench the plot and the garden though.

Surprise, surprise, the sun is out here and hardly a cloud in the sky this evening .  How weird it has been weatherwise, like "Four Seasons in one day", by Crowded House.  :) busy_lizzie

It was a pleasure Emma, sending the rain all the way down to Essex for your lovely vegetabls and flowers.  Thing was, I got it too, now thats not fair.  We travelled up into Perthshire today and guess what??   yes, the rain stopped at home but we followed it all the way up to Dunkeld.  I was hoping to capture a wonderful picture of the Osprey but guess what?   yes, you guessed it,  batteries went capoot on the camera. 

So this leaves me with a happy Emma but a frustrated Carol, cos everything went wrong today and will be pleased to get to bed.   Hope your hayfever has ceased!!!
