this morning at 6 it was dry by 8is it was very windy and by 9is it was raining and has not stopped it is now driving rain here in wales and l do not think it is going to get any better although l have not looked at the weather forcast for north wales
Awful! Suffering from withdrawal symptoms. Been out to my greenhouse to inspect my seedlings and plantlets in detail. So far I can report no change since I inspected them last evening, but I'll pop out in an hour or two just to be sure they don't need attention.
North Wales no better I'm told (husband and daughter gone to climbing wall as no chance of even a walk outdoors let alone finding dry rock - apparently only 2 deg. at 9am in Llanberis)
Absolutely atrocious here in Chester - v.wet, v.windy, v.cold.
Still, at least I've sown some more seeds, now where can I put them to keep them warm?
Ha, I thought it was dying down a bit earlier! No chance. The lid to one coldframe has repeatedly 'flipped' despite bricks on top! The plants from there now been put into another coldframe, luckily empty, & the first just abandoned. Suspect the loose lid blowing around could drive me mad overnight if this wind continues- too close to bedroom window, drat!
I shall use it to have the woodland cactii in for over the summer months, then to the tip it shall go! Part of the plastic frame has snapped, so no point in trying to mend it. J.
Figrat and soggy doggy back from venture out to get guttering. Mission successful, but suddenly the thought of sawing it up and sowing seeds doesn't seem so attractive! Wind eased here ( south Devon) but still raining. Some of my climbing roses have taken a battering. Dwarf French beans looking smug and snug under their cloches.
Wet and windy here in south yorkshire, not stopped raining since last night. Quickly nipped into my greenhouse to check on the seeds, could not believe the temp in there 5 Celsius moved seeds into the house.

One word - wet.
The weather girl described it this morning in what she called "two words" -wet and windy-now I am no maths expert but..............

Light-bulb on in Kent, blues skies and windy but who cares about wind! It will dry my soil out faster.
