Well done you :D :D :D

Thank you for the Dance Lorna, I have just been in the garden with my book and bikini tempting the clouds to give me a good soaking but they are not taking the hint!

Thank goodness there is not a hose pipe ban here ....

Lorna, can you get some family members to dance too? Nothing here, and my camellia looks like is has died :'( :'( :'(  What will be next???

Woefully wailing in a waterless waste........... in Wakering.

Two spits in Edinburgh then nothing. It'll probably get here tomorrow cos we're planning a barbecue.

Yababdabadooooooo it's raining  ;D I don't think it will be enough to do more than lay the dust though  :(

Still struggling in the waterless desert of Shropshire. :(

 ;D ;D ;D ;D

We have had rain!!!

Well, a few spits, looks like more to come tonight! Off to the lottie to admire grateful veg!

Update :-\ just got back, still had to water!!

>:(

YEs! Rain stopped play. We had chicken korma stir fry instead. But it's great to have wind and rain and coolness. Mmmmmm. :) :) :) :) :) :) :)

On the other hand the whole garden is still parched, the grass is brown, the goldfish have developed a dry, hacking cough and I'm not even going to talk about the lottie. ;)

Off topic and talking of goldfish, couldn't resist taking a pic of this menu on hols recently. Click on pic and read 2nd choice under pescado.



Needless to say I had the vegetarian option. ;D

Goldfish are a sort of ornamental carp, and the normal ones used to be farmed in medieval times. So they should be good to eat, though they're a bit small. If it strictly is goldfish, of course, and not standard carp!

We had a bit of drizzle this afternoon; it perks things up, but one dry day and it's back to square one.

7mm Sunday & 18mm last night - great!

But where did it go?? That is JIC. Just dust!!

steady rain last night at last here too tim ;D

Yes here too! Just in time to soak my drying onions, garlic and shallots.... :'( :'(
Never happy am I! ;D :P

Never happy either. Darned cold here, still blowing a half-gale.....and my tomatoes need SUN ;D ;D ;D

Chucking it down with rain here ;D

Have to stay in and do housework on my day off >:(

It has rained so hard here over night and this morning that most of my flowers have either been beheaded or flattened  :'(
Beautifull sunshine now  :)

There may have been another shower last night, but I'm not sure; if it did, it's had time to dry up. Hopefully it should rain again today. But everything's still parched.
