Artjak, you poor thing, could you hold Chrissie lunch till New Year's Day? Hope you are feeling better now. Sunny and windy here, think we are due for rain later in the day though.
Stockton is dry and sunny with blue sky above although quite cloudy further north, hope it stays there. Expecting visitors now and as I ate out they will not be getting cold turkey, now what is there in the cupboard, better go and see.
Was dry enough to plant a few fruit bushes and strawberries, then the rain came a little so I cotinued, came in for lunch (smoke salmon sarnnies) and now the heavens are emptying again.
No sales for me, but maybe a trip to GC next week as I have a token
I don't really care what it's doing outside as I've got a good old fashioned head cold and some, my poor nose is like Rudolph's red and shining, have managed to hang some washing out but don't think it will dry as the wind has dropped it's 5.8c so not to bad at least the rain that was forecast for yesterday didn't turn up and up to now today's hasn't either so fingers crossed, think I'll hibernate till New Year then maybe this blasted cold will have gone
Yesterdays' sun didnt last- it threw it down later on!
Was surprised to find the temperature in the back garden only 1-2C this morning. It's dull & damp out there now. Decided against the GC sale visit after all -will go next week instead! J.
In a dry spot yesterday nipped out and planted some strawberries and gooseberries, rescued a rhubarb root but still unplanted and as the rain started heeled in some raspberries. I have no idea where I am going to plant them
Some morose and sorrowful clouds above this morning in Stockton and they are weeping, must have watched all those repeat weepies over Christmas on TV, it would make a stone angel sad. "Rain" head over a dish of hot water and Balsam with a towel over your head, it makes your eye's water, clears your nose, and makes you so glad to get out from under the towel you forget the cold, works for me. I was under the impression the Fens were always wet rain or not?

The Fens; brilliant sunshine but am laid low with norovirus (Christmas lunch was 2 rice cakes - yum!) so won't be striding down the canals.
Anyone off shopping in the sales?
No sales shopping here- may try GC tomorrow though, cards yes & whatever takes my fancy.
After a wet day yesterday, today is bright sunshine at the mo. Was colder this morning though & only about 6C now. J.

Today, as ever it is throwing it down.

Drizzle in the Fens, overcast but not horribly so.
Hope it's getting better in the South West.
