When April showers should come your way they bring the flowers that bloom in May, and when its raining have no regrets because it isn't raining rain you know, it's raining Violets.
They should write a song about it. last Nights weather forecast showed a dry UK with a dark blue rain cloud right over Tees Mouth from Saltburn to Hartlepool Headlands and inland towards Darlington, I feared the worst. In true April Fool style the sun is shining into the room as I write.
Quiet day today all the Girls in the family are luxuriating in a Spa Hotel for the weekend, Janet one of my Daughters birthday tomorrow, I got a picture last night she was carrying a notice "Where is the Cake" typical of my lot, the men are in charge expect chaos.
It's been a lovely day today - rain last night, which is what we gardeners like - then full sun and virtually now wind today. We did lots in the garden and the fields and had visitors for lunch too, yum, yum! A very enjoyable day.
Stockton has Sunshine after a nights rain and high wind, every thing smells fresh and it is warm. Another surprise as i walked around a corner of the garden the Forsythia in full and plentiful bloom, a glorious sight. It does get TLC each year after flowering, I cut it right back as next years blooms are on this years growth. It has been there for thirty odd years and I ain't killed it yet.

I have tempted fate now and seen the forecast for next weekend looks good for the RHS Cardiff Spring Flower Show...

It is raining now, which is great - the garden needs it. However I hope it is dry tomorrow - things to do outside.

Hello , it has been a nice day , sun came out in afternoon - Lincoln
Cloudy, 22ºC and windy. Sun peeked out for a few minutes, but with 70% chance of rain, won't likely be out much today.

A mixed bag today but quite warm. Forecast is prolonged sunny spells tomorrow so must make hay (well, not actual hay!)
