    Hope is near Wrexham in North Wales. Has not rained there either.

    Same here in West Mids.  I'm really hoping it's going to rain at some point.   The cloud is grey.
    I wish I was a glow worm

    Dont think we will get any rain soon, def not this week according to Countryfile but we all live in hope, water level in local reservoir very low, water company are monitoring daily with a possible view to hosepipe ban, I dont use but am sorely tempted

    An evening with some rain a few weeks back...but not a lot, horribly dry. Forecast for London is a bit cooler though. Peeps seem to have stopped lighting up the BBQ. :|
    I see Ireland is getting rain, good for them. :)
