    once again promised rain all night and nothingimage thrid night on the trot not a drop to be had.. my garden is now dying and i cannot afford to water it anymore as the meter has been going crazy and i dread the bill next month...

  • Since my water butts ran out a couple of weeks ago I have been showering with the plug in the bath, then using the water for my plants. But last night it rained lots and the butts are 2/3 full image

    My water butts still pretty well empty, so metered tap water/recycled kitchen 'grey' water now. image

    We got hot at Tatton! Wellies stayed in carboot & so did waterproof coats after our lunchtime picnic! Ok we did need brollies once, but most people didnt bother as getting wet after the heat was bliss! image J.

    Last  night promised rain all night and all day. Well not one drops.. it is heavy and humid and hot.no rain.

    Our water butts emptied weeks ago now most of this month been watering from tap and used water.

    Not had rain since 19th may here.. even my long standing large perennials are now wilting and withering. Have lost 10 plants so far.image

  • We have had a little rain today, not sure that it's enough so I don't have to water this evening. It still feels very hat and muggy.

  • Pouring down with rain here in Mid -Wales, saves me the job of watering this evening !image

    According to my weather station 27 mm (over an inch) in the last hour and still going strong! (Leicestershire)

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.
