Bright sunshine and very breezy. Everything is drying out nicely (including all my laundry!). Cool, but not unpleasant.
(Glad I'm not in West Wales - the news reports show it as being terrible; in the circumstances, I think we got off pretty lightly with the recent gales).
Still very windy here on the south coast but we do have sunshine in the bits where there are no clouds, does that make sense? Hate working in the wind find it very tiring so catching up with greenhouse and indoor chores. Hope tomorrow is better.
Outside in a warm rain staking foxgloves and flag irises, too much water for them. Tomato's now tied in and side shoots gone most from the bottom, nothing there one day and a forest the next. Granddaughters sun flower gained six inches from last week, she will be pleased. Sun, rain, sun, rain, no point in running in and out just worked in it, but nice and warm.
After 2 days of heavy, persistant rain & strong winds- M6/M5 down to Nworcs not much fun yesterday- the rain has finally stopped here in Manchester as well.
Am fed up of being cold & damp & no plans to garden today!
Think tomorrow shall get outside, into greenhouse first & then, plus waterproof trousers, finally plant out the remaining fuschias etc, providing the slugs leave me some! J.

Dry for the last hour - and thundering persistently.
OH is out there, planting out bedding....
It is cold, grey, windy and intermittently very wet. Not conducive to gardening.

That dry thunder has turned into a very wet downpour...

Lovely bright sunshine here--weeds and tent caterpillars flourishing.
Grey skies in Kent, not so much wind, not so much showers, no so much gardening. If it survives the wind, its got my vote.
