Or cause a bird to shit all over your bonnet (or Fedora).

That flippin' wind that blew me all over Docklands yesterday has died down now - hooray! Less cold, grey sky but a bit brighter, I'd say.
C'mon Wimbledon Effect

Rather overcast in the Labrador Bay area now, but still quite balmy, with but a light breeze.Comment

Pleasant enough day here in The Smoke - light to gentle north-wester, three-quarters cloud cover (cumulus with stratocumulus "infill"), temperature up to 19 C. Still a couple of degrees below the norm - which looks like setting the pattern for this "summer", but I'll settle for that: heatwaves usually mean polluted air and sleepless nights in this part of the world. I'm just hoping the predicted "sharp showers" fail to materialise tomorrow, as yours truly and another jazz afficionado plan to walk 6 miles of the wooded hills of S Essex.
Just went out and bought a couple of fuschias to plant in two of our three neglected pretend-earthenware pots, plus a trayful of multicoloured lobelia to trail around their bases, and a couple of Nemesia Carmina for the two real glazed pots someone living nearby had put out for collection by the council, can you believe? Should look nice beside the two potted pellargoniums.Comment

I've had a welcome email from our #1 Mahlerei.
He's is getting used to new specs, so hope that helps his bad sight problem.
And he's not missing the MBs with all the rows and wrangling.
The buns and Sky agree with him.
On topic, bright but chilly here - hope it keeps dry for Wimbledon.Comment
