Sorry!!

[chykensa]

My sincere apologies to anyone who has come to Cornwall this weekend to bask in our tropical climate. Like most tropical areas, we are currently suffering an technical difficulty with the sun, which is covered by huge and very productive rain clouds.
In other words, it's pi$$ing it down, so much so that I am on bucket watch in the kitchen where our roof has a leak!
Normal conditions will no doubt be resumed by September.
Out.

not much better here in the North

 Or up here - & my son is running the Edinburgh Marathon today...so far they've had thunder, lightning, hailstones & persistent rain - & he hates running marathons in rain & wind...

 Never mind mamma will give him cream for his chaffed bits

Try the far north west!! Hammering down atm!  

Oh! Just realised it's a bank holiday weekend.... well that explains it all really!!

(Then again...        shouldn't complain too much cause that's how we have the 'lakes' in Cumbria!      )

We now have a temporary improvement - stopped raining and threatening to brighten up. Blimey, wouldn't living in the UK be boring if we had wall-to-wall sunshine all the time!? We would have nothing to talk about on fora!

Same here chykensa, as soon as I'd posted above the sun came out to call me a liar!!    

Now sitting slowly cooking in our conservatory... couldn't hear myself think 15mins ago!!

Typical... I'll give it 5 mins to start pi$$ing down again, now I've posted this!!

    Probably came from over our direction! 

Hey! look on the bright side we took at least half of the rain out of the clouds over here first, so it shouldn't last too long!

Nice and sunny here

Not for long my friend, judging by the direction the clouds are scudding past on a moderate westerly force 4!!
